The Bee has a dairy allergy which makes eating socially difficult. Despite our attempts to keep dairy free snacks and food available as she gets older it’s become a bit more challenging to keep her from feeling excluded when it comes time to bust a grub in public.
We visited Whole Foods a few weeks ago and found Daiya mozzarella style shreds.

| I am in love with Whole Foods again! |
As a woman who will (and at times does) eat anything I was a bit weary about this product. We have tried soy cheese before and the taste leaves a bit to be desired. These mozzarella style shreds are almost like the real thing, melts, has a good taste and has my kid eating with minimal fuss!
Inspired by the cooking class she is taking in school, The Bee even made breakfast, fried eggs with mozzarella sprinkled on it.

I know it’s just pizza but unless you are a parent who has to constantly provide a separate snack, explain that No, eggs are not dairy and have to bring your own cake to restaurants its hard to express just how happy this makes us.
Sometimes it’s the little things!
Stocking up on cheese style shreds,

Thanks! There used to be a string cheese stick that was tasty but they stopped making it…I’ll have to give your idea a try:)
