I'm allergic to tree nuts and some legumes, including peanuts, peas,lentils, and soybeans. Anything concentrated with soy I immediately know I've eaten something "bad". I always have within reach an epipin and chewable childrens benadryl. We read all labels of everything we purchase. Certain breads have more soy flour/oils then others. Certain types of coffee creamer also. Like mentioned earlier, just about all frozen and/or processed foods have some type of soy products. Weird that I can have soy sauce (I'm told because the soy has been fermented, don't know for sure).
My DW is a great cook and cooks everything from almost scratch and is just as diligent (if not more) than I am :B.
My allergic reactions differ based upon what and how much I ate by mistake.
Plus we always ask what the food is cooked in or with what when we go out to eat.
Just stay in tuned as much as possible with what you buy and you will be fine. But know the symptoms and keep your medicine close just in case.
