A study published in October’s issue of the Journal of the American Dietetic Association says that American children get almost half of their daily energy from fast food. http://www.medicaldaily.com/articles/2403/20101005/40-of-american-childrens-diet-is-fast-food.htm
This is the one time where I think that it is positive that my family has food allergies. Those same allergies that keep us up at night also mean that it’s not easy to just grab fast food between activities. Therefore I believe that we eat more healthfully and with more thought and that’s definitely a good thing.

You are absolutely right. Ever since we have found out about my son’s multiple allergies, we have reminded ourselves that our family eats more healthy because of his allergies. We are consuming less preservatives, chemicals, calories and fat.
Our good deeds don’t always make us rich, but will make us rich in other ways.
