Title: Soybean crayons?
Post by: 2ndGenAllergyMom on October 17, 2014, 11:11:36 PM
Has anyone else seen these?

I've seen them at restaurants twice now.  I showed them to my SIL, who said "Ooh, natural crayons!"  Of course, my initial reaction was to wonder about soy allergies.

Soy isn't one of our concerns, but I was wondering what parents of soy allergic kids thought of them.

They don't come in my house.

In fact, unless I call, only Crayola crayons come in the house.

Well, natural. They must be good for you.


Kills me every time.

They are a problem for at least some soy-allergic people.  DH gets eczema on his hands and wrists from them.
