Unfortunately since they started using soy lecithin instead of palm oil as the emulsifier in all formed chocolate and chocolate chips are pretty much not accessible to our kids. It’s amazing, even the expensive, high end chocolate uses soy lecithin. Sometimes they’ll still have palm oil (I assume for taste) but they’ll still contain soy … Read more

No Apparent Soy or Nuts, but since we can’t find ingredient list from manufacturer, we can’t be sure about the facilities that these are produced in — so another pass. And now you know why I tell my kids that they are going to be the healthiest people they know: They can’t eat any of … Read more

Not to rehash my “just tell me if there’s soy in it” rant, but we just got a Twizzlers Watermelon Pull ‘n’ Peel candy handed to our kids at a parade. The wrapper says “Allergy Information: Contains WHEAT and SULFITES.”. Which as you all know for those of us with soy allergies, that doesn’t tell … Read more
This goes in the same category of weird as Burger King’s pickles have soy in them. I would have never thought to check a powdered drink mix for soy. It just so happened that I was asked to take two cans of Country Time Lemonade drink mix to our church’s kitchen for vacation bible school … Read more
Mayonnaise is one of those items that is just about impossible to find without soy in it — the other being chocolate, but we’ll cry about that another time. You’ll often see jars of olive oil or canola oil mayonnaise, but the catch is, soybean oil is still in there, they’re just using the other … Read more
Another stunner, another deeply processed food that one would expect to contain soy: Kraft Macaroni and cheese actually doesn’t contsin soy. More official ingredient list forthcoming: https://wiki.answers.com/Q/List_the_Ingredients_in_kraft_macaroni_and_cheese

We'd love to keep this site relevant for every other parent (and person) that has to go through this nightmare. If you collect any information about any organization that serves food, please share it with us and we'll make sure the world knows about it.
