Abstract
We are writing in response to the British Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (BSACI) egg allergy guideline, published earlier this year in your Journal [1]. The guideline includes a section on the home introduction of egg. This makes the point that home introduction is not the same as a food challenge. It further describes which children can reintroduce egg at home, for example those without asthma or with well controlled asthma and only mild to moderate symptoms on previous exposures.
