New Food Introduction: Strawberries

Strawberries! This particular fruit topped my worry list.  Those histamine rich foods, such as citrus, tomatoes and strawberries, oh boy!  Would Baby Brother tolerate them, would his gut approve?  When strawberries arrived at the market recently, I just went for it.  Baby Brother loves blueberries, and even cranberries.  He needed a new berry to enjoy.  And the more fresh, local food we can eat in season, the better my spirit.

I just happened to read this about sulfites and histamines in relation to drinking red wine.  Click here if you are interested.
