Case:Ben has an allergy to eggs and peanuts. He can eat products with eggs cooked into them, but he can’t eat whole eggs. His allergic reaction is not life-threatening so it is considered an allergy, not a disability. Q: Is the child still able to consume the full CACFP meal pattern component? A: Yes, the child is still able to consume the meal pattern because he can consume other items in the meat/meat alternate component Therefore, the center can substitute another food within the meat/meat alternate component so the child receives a full reimbursable meal
