heathaah: I’m the 3% that stayed allergic to milk. So my daughter will probalby also be inclined. Apparently not giving any the first year is supposed to help them not get allergies to it (though avoiding peanuts during pregnancy increased odds, idk). I would imagine Soy might be hard to give up just because it’s in everything. Like salad dressings and things.
With milk though- one pretty helpful thing is Koser Laws. So parve means ‘no milk or meat’. WIth lots of processed foods if you find “parve” on the corner it doesn’t have dairy. Some Duncan Hines cake mixes for instance are parve, but others aren’t. It helps for quick comparrisons.
