Have you heard?<a href="http://www.everydaytreats.com/2011/10/stopping-then-starting-again.html"> One of my sons has food allergies</a>. So I've added a category called Living With Food Allergies so that we can try allergen-free foods together. Fun! (Not really.)

With Halloween coming up I was shocked at how much chocolate is made on equipment that processes nuts. Since M has peanut and tree nut allergies, that means that most conventional chocolate is a no-no.

So of course, my first course of action was finding a nut-free chocolate. It wasn't easy, but I found this bag of <a href="http://www.guittard.com/index.asp">Guittard</a> chocolate chips at Whole Foods and OMG -- this is, without a doubt, the most delicious milk chocolate I have ever eaten. EVER. And it is processed in<a href="http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/guittard-online/allergen2.pdf"> a peanut-free facility and while there are almonds on the premises, they are never run on the chocolate equipment</a>. Which I'm absolutely comfortable with. So, score!

The boys eat it by the fistful. Oh hell, I do too.
