soy ink and soy allergy

[radiowave]

my sister in law's daughter (9 months) has a soy allergy (it seems to cause GI distress)...we were hoping to get her some Plan toys for christmas which are made with soy ink, but when sister in law asked her daughter's GI specialist, he said that she should be kept away from soy ink...it is hard for me and my sister in law to imagine that petrochemicals are better for the babe than the soy, but she is still nervous. What do others with experience with soy allergies think?
TIA!

If she's 9 months, she's going to put it in her mouth, so no, I wouldn't get them for her. What's a plan toy? I'm not familiar with it. Can you just get her some other kind of toy?
