Thanks for the feedback. We have no history of food allergies either. I think the dietitian is being very cautious. She also says an allergy can develop later on after they been doing fine eating the food. I think I'm going to go for it though, sunflower seed butter is only good for so long.
Melissa maybe your son is allergic to beans. Garbanzo beans is a major component to hummus. I have a friend who's half Mexican who's allergic to beans. She finds if very unfair. though the sesame candy does make sesame suspect, huh?
Oh, and "allergic to Sesame street" thats cute and sad.

We didn't introduce our little one until after he was a year old. I have always heard that the thought is that we are introducing kids to things too early, and that's what is believed to cause the rise in food allergies. I was surprised at the information you heard regarding the other countries that showed the opposite. Interesting....

I think the standard is over 1 yr old, although I think our pediatrician said to wait until 2. We started my oldest son at about 16 months and he had no adverse reaction. No peanut allergies in the families either. Now I can't wait to start him on shellfish, but I think that's over 4 or 5 years old.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends not intrudicing peanut products until after 3 years of age.

It's important to remember that it's not just for peanut butter but peanut products, including peanut oil which is very common in kid's snacks. The growing use of peanut oil in products that people wouldn't expect to find peanuts is the reason for the higher incidence of peanut allergies.

My niece is highly allergic to sesame. We discovered this because she loves hummus. Note that an allergy to sesame can often be a pre-cursor to nut allergies.

Allergy testing on young children can be very misleading. If a child has not been exposed to the allergen enough then the IgE antibodies will not be present leading to a false conclusion.
