Vegemite allergie in baby's?

[Nicole Tracy]

Hey Ladies,

Great thread - I'm sure this will help many Mums. Vegemite is a notorious allergen, mainly due to the yeast, 220 (sulphur dioxide) and malt. Because your son's rash was all over his body, I tend to agree that it is most likely from the sulphur dioxide.

And Gigi - I am a huge advocate of VEGESPREAD by Freedom Foods. No yeast, no gluten, much less salt, and from memory, preservative free. A much healthier option, and most families find that vegemite is a distant memory after a couple of weeks.

Squidipa - I would still hold off on introducing such foods to your little guy - if he's showing some signs of food sensitivities, I'd take it slow in opening up the world of solid foods to him.

All the best
