Please note: Some sites have linked to this recipe page as
the main page of FAST, but it's not...this is just a small section of
a large food allergy site. Please click here for the main page: Food Allergy Survivors Together
These recipes can be used for PERSONAL USE only!
If you plan on passing them along through
other websites or printed materials, you MUST write
for permission! If you want to print them out for a
friend or for personal use, that is fine as long as you
leave the creator's name on the recipe and write that
it is from "Food Allergy Survivors Together" along with
the site address. I have actually stopped sharing any new recipes of mine (which are usually very popular!) because of the huge amount of copyright infringement stemming from people taking my recipes off this section of the site and reprinting them as their own (an illegal act). Please, please respect the fact that people put much time and effort into their recipes, and deserve the credit for what they have done. By infringing on copyright, you make many individuals wary of sharing their recipes. Let's respect one another and the work we have gone to in order to come up with allergen-free recipes.
The small print:
These sections contain selected photographs of finished products.
Unfortunately, not all recipes will work for all people.
Adjust the ingredients or skip a recipe that contains one of your allergens. It is extremely important to note that the recipes on FAST have not been tested for meeting nutritional needs. It is very common for people with food allergies to be lacking in necessary vitamins and minerals. For example, I developed osteopenia in my 20s as a result of not having a source of calcium! It's very important to talk to a doctor about how to get needed nutrients; the recipes offered online on all allergy websites should not be construed as being nutritionally balanced. This is out of the ability of FAST, and each person will vary on what nutrients are not available in his or her allergen-free diet.
Please feel free to print out this little "recipe book" for your own use and
for friends. Please remember, however, that these recipes are protected and may only be used for personal use. They may not be passed along on mailing lists, bulletin boards, etc.
To get only one recipe, use the copy and paste features on your browser. Copy the
recipe, then paste it into your word-processing program (SimpleText or WordPad
work great since they are low memory). Remember to include the credit of the FAST site, the page you got the recipe from, and the author of the recipe, and a notice that the recipe is protected.
If you have an original recipe that you don't mind sharing, we would love
to hear from you. Send the recipe in universal format (ex: no 1/2 one-key
signs) and how you want to be credited to:
the webmaster. Note that occasionally other websites and organizations will ask FAST for permission to reprint your recipes (we are not paid for this service). If you want your recipes to potentially appear in another resource, you can include an e-mail address where you can be contacted. Your e-mail address will then appear on the website alongside your recipe so that companies and publishers can contact you. I do not grant permission for your recipes to appear elsewhere.
