cheaper alternatives to the expensive 'free-from' range snacks

If your child has a dairy, egg and/or soya allergy then u may be spending a fortune on free-from stuff like I have been. I have spent some time hunting around the supermarkets and found that some of them are selling foods in the normal aisles that are suitable.

here are some of the things i've found - please add to them by 'add comment' if you find anymore. Double check ingredients before you buy though as they seem to change them.

Waitrose - iced buns! yum! mini marmite rice cakes.

morrisons - own-brand digestive biscuits, ric tea biscuits (but not the fingers).

Sainsburys - decorate your own christmas star biscuits, apple turnovers. the new Planet Lunch range is mainly ok too although watch out for the mini garlic breads as they contain milk.

tesco - own-brand rich tea biscuits, fresh baked mini gingerbread men. Oatland apple, raisen and cinnamon cookies, own-brand pitta breads, own-brand bagels, mini apple pies

party rings are sold peretty much everywhere and are fine. some of the special diet/low fat snack foods e.g. biscuits/cakes are ok for people just avoiding dairy but a lot of them still have egg in.

also, some of the toddler snacks are ok and older children may not mind them e.g. the organix gingerbread men.

I'll add more as i find them.
