Ques. Goat Cheese and Soy Milk

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have a stubborn 4 yr old who will go to bed hungry without eating

any proteins.... 3 days in a row.

SO, is goat cheese permissable on this diet or does it have any of the

bad ingredients? Also does everyone stay away from Soy milk? I know

Soy is not ideal but it does have protein in it where as the rice milk

and potato substitutes don't.

Thanks a bunch!

Yes, goat products are acceptable. Soy milk is also acceptable if

your child will tolerate it. I've recently switched to almond milk

and hemp milk, though. There's some debate on the estrogen in soy

products and although I'm still on the fence, I'd rather be safe than

sorry I guess.

Hi Rene

Goat cheese, goat milk, sheep cheese and such are fine

for most. The only issues we have w/it is lactose

intolerance, but usually eat it anyway. Caroline

My son restricts his foods pretty badly. Right now he

will only eat *cold* hamburger patties (far less taste

that way) and Mc's chicken selects. On a good

day he likes sirloin tip roast w/sauce on a hamburger

bun. In the past, he's been good about eating mild

salami - and that's a great protein and fat combo. I

also give them bacon and lots of eggs - fried,

scrambled, however they like it. My oldest thrives on

lots of eggs -2 a day that is-(must be the

cholesterol) and hasn't had a return of eczema from a

few years back, so his sensitivities have really

reduced.

You could get pasteurized eggs and try raw egg mixed

into frozen drinks/slushies and such. Sounds gross

but it's good stuff - pasteurized only of course.

I do not worry about nitrates anymore, they have not

been a problem for my kids, and the protein and fat

look like they've been putting a little weight on

them.

Oatmeal has some decent protein too, and sticks w/ya.

I have to pour syrup over it for my boys. You can get

sugar free or reduced sugar syrups (ugh). I want to

try to make soaked/cooked oats into some yummy snack

bars if I knew how.

Maybe your kid would try cultured meats or lunch

meats, honey flavored or smoked if you don't fret

about nitrates. I have one who likes them, one who

doesn't. I roll them up and slice them to look more

appealing. I'm about to violate the no dairy by

putting american cheese in it for the one who refuses

to eat them until he gets used to the taste (he would

do anything for a piece of cheese) and then go back to

strictly no dairy again.

For awhile we were using rice protein powder in smoothies (which my son

won't drink anymore unless I order from a restaurant) and waffles and

muffins. High protein in a small amount of powder.

Soy can be a problem if milk protein is a problem, since they are very

similar.

Nitrate-free lunch meats are becoming easier to find. We bought several

varieties over the weekend from Trader Joe's, just not for my son, since he

won't touch them ;-( He will eat nitrate-free hot dogs (only Applegate Farms

brand) and lucky for me, he will eat this cold and sliced in his school

lunch.
