FWIW, this my be helpful:

Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES)
http://allergies.about.com/od/foodallergies/a/fpies.htm

>What Foods Cause FPIES?

The most common foods implicated in the cause of FPIES are milk and
soy formulas. However, solid foods can also cause the problem, most
commonly cereal grains (oats, rice, barely), legumes (peas, lentils,
beans) and poultry (such as chicken and turkey).

Foods that are typically tolerated by children with FPIES include
breast milk and hydrolyzed casein infant formulas (such as
Alimentum).<

Hope this helps,
