This might not be a big deal to some, but to me...it is.
It started out as a good first.
Easton had his first kids meal at Chick Fil A.
For those who know me...I big hot pink puffy HEART Chick Fil A.
Easton had chicken nuggets and mandarin oranges and grapes. Not too bad. Right?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
BUT...THEN....BATH TIME...his eczema was bad- worse than normal considering we only do our bath every other night and he had a little bitty rash under his chin on his chest.
So then I freak.
Chick Fil A cooks in Peanut Oil.
Babies can't have peanuts.
Is he allergic?
Is he ok?
Is it a fluke???
Really, I think he's ok.
I do have a tiny tendancy to get worked up over something little.
MOM-------HUSH.
Anyways...our first chicken nuggets!
First of many I'm sure...if he's anything like his momma.
I remember talking to Jeremy's friend Tony about Chick-fil-A because his son is very allergic to peanuts - and he eats there fine! Check this out from their website:
ReplyDeleteQ: Are oils derived from foods that can cause allergy, such as peanut oil, also allergenic?A: Not usually. Most commercial oils such as peanut oil are highly refined (hot solvent extracted), which removes protein from the product. These types of oils are most commonly used in commercial food preparation. Since it is protein in allergenic foods that cause food allergy (highly refined oils are non-allergenic), research has shown that individuals with a severe peanut allergy have not had reactions to heat processed oils. However, people with a food allergy should avoid "gourmet" or cold pressed oils because they may contain allergenic proteins, which provide the flavor to the oil. For the same reason, oils that have been used to fry potentially allergenic foods should be avoided by allergic individuals.
