Alisa Fleming, Dairy Free Made Easy - As to be expected on a dairy-free website, calcium is a common topic. Consumers are led to believe that milk is the only “good” source of calcium, when in fact there are many common foods that fit the bill. Not to mention, how much calcium should we really be getting? A recent study out of Duke University actually suggests that higher calcium intakes could in fact lead to more brain lesions. |

Hannah Kaminsky, Bittersweet Blog - Hungry for some instant gratitude that goes by the name of delivery pizza? It seems to be a food that few stop craving even as the years of childhood are left in the dust, something that 90% of people at a party could easily agree on, and a forbidden temptation for many vegans. Not satisfied to simply report that Sheese did not perform as I had hoped on top of a pita pizza, I wracked my brain to figure out a way around such a huge obstacle. |

Steve Carper, Planet Lactose - Lactose is a sugar, a slightly-sweet sugar. It is only about one-seventh as sweet as sucrose, ordinary table sugar. Oddly enough, this is a good thing to many in industry. Lactose allows a bit of pleasant sweetness to be added to products, without overwhelming them with an overly-sweet taste. Commercial bakers can sprinkle lactose on the tops of bread and let it caramelize to a beautiful golden-brown. Food processors can add lactose (or whey, which is mostly lactose) to add taste and texture to foods without affecting the primary taste of the food. |

Allergic Girl, Please Don't Pass the Nuts - I’m an Allergic Girl but not an allergic mother nor an allergic kid. Most of what I post is about managing life as an adult who advocates for her allergy-free life. However, I’m not completely oblivious, I hope, to the large world of allergic kids and their concerned parents. Not too long ago, I was that sneezing, wheezing, no I can’t come over to your house to play because of fluffy/spike or no I can’t have some of your walnut birthday torte girl. (Ok, no one really served walnut tortes but you get the idea). |
