>From my personal experience: Soya sauce, vinegars, any store juices (freshly squeezed are OK), some spices (black pepper for example), food additives like MSG and the newer inosinates and sodium guanylate, dried fruit and peanut butter. I only react to blue cheeses, thankfully. An exclusion diet for a while then reintroducing suspect foods one by one is the only practical way to find out for sure.

My allergist was a teacher also, and taught me to be my own sleuth when it casme to what would trigger asthma. things that contain mold spores are not only cheese, but anything fermented and even food that is more than two days old. That means watch out for leftovers. Sally Sharon Cooper <tala...@teleport.com> wrote: That was the second opinion. I suppose I could get a third but I think that I will get a similar line with all the allopathic docs. They seem to think that because they have reduced the dose on inhaled steroids it is o.k. to take them longer. I just had a discussion with DH and we both think we can link all the attacks to episodes of mold exposure. Does this mean he should also avoid foods made with mold such as cheeses? Sharon
