Quick question: is vanillin OK?

[Guest guest]

Hi all:

I'm baking cookies, and had bought a bag of Wal-Mart Sam's Best chocolate chips

because I thought I'd read that they were GFCF. However, now I notice that they

contain vanillin...and they're made on the same lines as milk-containing chips.

First, is vanillin OK?

Also, has anyone used these chips without problems?

Thanks,

[Guest guest]

They are made in the same facility as milk chocolate but not on the same

lines as milk{or they could not be labeled parve by kosher law} but you are

right they do contain vanillin-it is gfcf accorking to walmart but is listed

on gfcf diet site as a food that could cause problems for some kids. We have

also been using these-previously with no problem -but he has developed some

neew behaviors and I must admit the chips are suspect in my mind right now.

,

I got my little Bible out ( " Special Diets for Special Kids " by

" ), and on page 70 it says " Vanillan is highly phenolic and should

always be avoided (it is on the forbidden list for the Feingold Diet

too). "
