Intro, and need food allergy info recommendations

Hi all. This is my first stop over here, because it looks like we are now trying to determine if LO has a food allergy. He has never had eczema, never had a rash at all. Wellll.. overnight he now has a huge, full blown blistered bottom. I did a bit of googling and found that it looks like what I thought was just skin chaffing is an "allergy ring"? The new foods introduced this week were wheat and corn- they were both in some of the meat combos that LO has been eating for dinner. He has been drooling more and cut a tooth this week, so the rash could be drool related. Yesterday I noticed a rash on his chin and neck that looks like eczema. This could also be drooling related.

My questions:

What are some good web-based resources for reading about food allergies and rashes? I like scientific based and peer reviewed articles, not just a mommy-site without any references.  I haven't had much luck with google today.

How do I go about figuring out if this is food related? I suppose stop the wheat and corn, and see if it clears up? Any advice?

Thanks!
