The Top 10 Challenge is an opportunity to live "a day on the plate of" someone you know or love with food allergies. The goal of the challenge is to (1) raise awareness & empath, and (2) raise much needed funds for food allergy research.
​
The Challenge will take place the last 10 days of April leading up to Food Allergy Awareness month in May. There are many ways you can participate in the Challenge. Browse the list below for some ideas, or come up with your own food allergy meal plan.​

-
Have a family member, friend or colleague with food allergies? Cut out their allergens to understand what life is like for them, specifically.
-
Have a peanut & tree nut allergy? Try going dairy-free (or soy-free… or egg-free… or sesame-free…) for 1 meal or 1 day.
-
Have a single allergy? Try cutting out several allergens all at once.
-
Have multiple allergies? Try cutting out an allergen you’re grateful you aren’t dealing with.
