> Well if you wouldn't mind - I'm still unsure (anxious) about some things. NO Broad beans - are Sugar Snap Peas in their pods included? Again, soy protein and soy flour - OK? Someone posted a reaction to buttermilk pancakes with soy flour! If I make my own chicken broth and thus eliminate the yeast extract found in canned broth, and then freeze it, do I have to worry about the age of the broth before using? And in regard to Marsala wine - I don't drink wine, but I cook with it, if the Marsala wine is used in making a sauce and cooked is that OK? Lastly, are there any frozen convenience foods out there that can be consumed that don't contain autolyzed yeast extract or yeast extract (both no-no's)?

Broad beans are specific type of bean, same as fava beans. They aren't very common, but you need to be aware. Other beans and peas are just fine.Soy protein & soy flour should be fine, it was probably the buttermilk that created the reaction. (This is my opinion gleaned from the information I have read - not fact.)
Making your own chicken broth and freezing it is just fine. Some of the organic broths are also made without out yeast.
Marsala wine in cooking is fine. In fact, unless it's homemade - wines in moderation are just fine. I can't imagine needing so much to cook with (and consuming enough of the dish) that you would ingest more than the equivalent of two glasses of wine!
I've had a hard time finding frozen/convenience foods too. I seem to have better luck in the natural or organic section of the store although they are pricier. Things without sauces tend to be yeast free as well. (Yeast isn't the enemy, just autolyzed yeast and yeast extract - I say yeast in these foods because it's easier to type.)

ps - you'll get the hang of it soon and be able to figure things out on your own, it just takes a while to get the basic reasoning down.
