Finding Snacks for Kids with Allergies
More than 12 million Americans are allergic to certain kinds of food, like peanuts and wheat, according to non-porfit Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network. Out of that population, 2.2 million are school-age children - and 1 in 17 kids under age 3 has food allergies. Not surprisingly, a growing number of companies have srouted up to help, offering everything from egg-free waffles to wheat-free pasta. While parents can increasingly find such offerings at gourmet grocery stores like Whole Foods, they can find an even wider range of products online.
