Avoiding Milk Protein
Run by Karen Blue who is an allergy mom herself, this web site has a wealth of information that focuses on Dairy free foods but also provides information about other allergen free foods, such as peanut free and gluten free products. The content includes information about food items, as well as books, and other things pertaining to food allergies. Especially useful, are the sections which outline Karen's contact with various manufacturers about their allergen statements and cross contamination policies. Anyone with food allergies would greatly benefit from her web site and also her contacts. She is well known in the allergy community and also among manufacturers. You will often find reviews of various allergen friendly products on her Avoiding Milk Protein Blog which features the latest news or tidbits of information about what's currently on her mind. It's a great resource for those who are newly diagnosed as well as the experts.

Food Allergy Mama
Kelly Rudnicki is a mother of five young children in suburban Chicago. Her second child, John, has severe dairy, egg, peanut, tree nut and legume allergies. Her web site is about sharing useful information, swapping safe recipes and sometimes just a place to speak and vent. I highly recommend Kelly's web site as well as her book "The Food Allergy Mama's Baking Book". Her recipes are amazing and she never dismisses reader ideas and feedback; she welcomes it and often suggests alternatives to those who have soy allergies upon their request. For anyone who lives with a nut, peanut, dairy, or egg allergy, this web site is a tremendous tool.

Also responsible for the informational site Go Dairy Free and wrote the limited edition guide Dairy Free Made Easy in 2006, followed up with a sequel in late 2008, Go Dairy Free: The Guide and Cookbook for Milk Allergies, Lactose Intolerance, and Casein-Free Living. Her recipes are all dairy-free, but also good in value. The web site has information about the best deals possible regarding dairy free foods and creating inexpensive meals that suit special diets. The author states that "the very idea of paying more than we have to for absolutely anything elicits horrific looks of pain and torture. So, follow me along as I learn to cook, continue to bake, share every good deal, meal, and idea I can find, and prove that special diets (dairy-free, gluten-free, etc.) can actually be less expensive while tasting great!"
