What's the issue with soy? Just an allergy?

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 44 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, I have a soy allergy lol.

I think it’s in the top 7-8 common food allergies in the US, at least.

[–] CallMeAnAI@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

.3% of the general population.

I think they meant as opposed to a larger ethical issue that affects everyone, but I agree it was a little too nonchalant.

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

[–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Why? Don't they usually develop young?

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not unusual apparently, especially in women.

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

[–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago

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....
