Earl Grey tea has bergamot in it, which is a kind of citrus (there is an herb bergamot which is not citrus, known as bee balm and that is ok) Most hard liquors are fine, just avoid mixes that might have fruit or ctric acid Quinoa is fine, as are all grains. mature beans (like those used in bean soup, baked beans etc) have some citric acid naturally, but some people can tolerate them up to a point. <br />Wines are kind of a crap shoot. I can only tell by trying them.<br /><br />Beer's the same. Most wine and beer companies don;t list ingredients, but we have had good luck calling the beer company directly. Citric acid is sometimes added to wine to adjust flavor, and some beers use lemon or orange peel which I react to badly.<br /><br />The cheaper the wine, I think the more likely to have the citric acid, but it is not 100% the rule. I have been lucky so far. :-}<br /><br />Safe fruits for me are apple, sweet cherries, pears, grapes, asian pears, dates. Figs were ok when I tried them, too. All veggies seem fine except for tomatillos (a kind of gooseberry) and of course tomatoes. If I am craving a lemony taste, Rhubarb is safe, as is lemon verbena, sorrel and hibiscus. I also use sumac which has a very nice lemony flavor, from oxalic acid rather than citric acid. There are some lovely herbal teas with lemon balm, hibiscus and lemon verbena in them, and they are safe.<br />Be certain to read ingredients and you can develop a wider safe pantry.

There is an avoiding corn forum at http://forums.delphiforums.com/AvoidingCorn/messages<br /><br />There are many prepared foods that have hidden citric acid and to avoid it, we buy our beef from a local farmer and have it custom processed (buy a side of beef or whole cow at a time). For the person that shops at Walmart, there are only about 8 items in my local Walmart that do not contain corny additives and none of them are meat.kristyrealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01112897104450770951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25322956.post-40107322602860559342010-05-19T00:27:52.094-04:002010-05-19T00:27:52.094-04:00you still around? this post was june '09. i ha...you still around? this post was june '09. i have a citric acid allergy group in facebook. just search it and look for the citrus fruit picture,.<br /><br />there are more and more people with this allergy.<br /><br />lots of info posted there tooAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25322956.post-7577782780595848702009-08-26T16:07:00.248-04:002009-08-26T16:07:00.248-04:00All meat these days is washed in Citric Acid, even...All meat these days is washed in Citric Acid, even Organic.<br />It is potent stuff, as it permeates thru to the bone.

You just need t read the labels if you are drinking something other people make. I CAN tell you that Coke brand products (Coke and Doctor Pepper) tend not to have citric acid, and Pepsi-brand products almost always have citric acid. Myself, I stick mostly to coffee, tea and water.<br />Oh, and Earl Grey tea is something I miss.
