[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 319967, member: 1963"] I'm alI wways glad to see the warning labels re: shellfish, since the by-products of shellfish are used in so many items (like joint supplents and the like). BUT, I was a bit surprised to be shopping a while back with a friend of mine and reading the label on a package of frozen crab-legs. They had a big, fat warning on them that they contained shellfish. I should think at fifteen dollars a lb., one would be highly incensed if one's crab-legs didn't contain shellfish! The nut and peanut labelling also annoys me when it is on a jar of peanut butter or sack of almonds. I do often wonder about something husband's oncologist once said to him in regarding how long his immune system had held out with his disease: "Every child needs to eat a bit of dirt now and again." I think that may apply to allergens as well. I wonder if we aren't setting our kids up for allergies later on by being overly cautious now. [/QUOTE]
