If you're a FAAN member (and if not, why not?), be sure to take their survey. It's 56 questions long, but many of those are "yes" or "no" answers or responding to a question on a number scale. It appears that FAAN is gathering info about how their members use them as a resource, as well as what other ways members get food allergy information.
I hope to see the results at some point. I think that for many years, FAAN was the only game in town for food allergy information. Now there is a great deal of information on the web. FAAN remains one of my most trusted sources, though.

Before FAAN a group of allergy support groups in Canada organized to lobby restaurants to reveal ingredient information and many did.
Before FAAN allergy groups organized, to petition food labeling at the time manufacturers did not even have to mark any ingredients on products.
I was a child with allergies "back when" now grown with an allergic child, and a non alleric child.
FAAN is big, and often does good things, but not the first, or always correct.
