I had a child allergic to rice, milk, carrots, cherries, fish, and a few other things that didn't matter as much. The rice was the hardest to deal with since it is hidden in so many foods to make a smoother batter. The difference was that her reaction was stomach and diaper rather than anaphalctic so the worst that happes was she would get sick for me. The problem was because little ones dont' understand including her that some foods would make her sick so she couldn't eat them and got something else instead or she didn't feel like she was missing out it just became easier to not serve some things such as no rice krispie squares for two years except for the weeks she was on vacation. It meant a lot of reading ingredient lists at the store for things like milk in baked goods and breading on chicken nuggets, etc.
