I’m still mad at nabisco for adding soy to the Oreo recipe. And Nilla wafers.
They were my only safe cookies I didn’t have to bake myself and weren’t exorbitantly priced like “organic” brands. Now I have to pay like $8+ for a tiny pack of off brand “sandwich cookies” 😭
Ah, yes. As someone who developed a shopping-list’s worth of allergies after turning 35, I guess I couldn’t even conceive of a different interpretation
I used to have an apple every day with my lunch, and then one day my apple turned out to be very spicy … followed by a whole raft of other foods in quick succession

What’s the issue with soy? Just an allergy?
Yes, I have a soy allergy lol.
I think it’s in the top 7-8 common food allergies in the US, at least.
.3% of the general population.
“Just an allergy” :-/
I think they meant as opposed to a larger ethical issue that affects everyone, but I agree it was a little too nonchalant.

Why? Don’t they usually develop young?
Not unusual apparently, especially in women.

Wow, I’m sorry that happened! Today I learned…
There’s no “just” about allergies, unfortunately.
One of my partners has FND and allergies/sensitivities to some super common shit that gives them seizure like symptoms.
You have no idea how hard it is to work around a combined yeast/coconut/vinegar restriction…

Technically Oreo is the off brand
It started off that way, but now it is very much on brand.
