I have problems when eating out because No one seems familiar with garlic allergy. They will say no it doesn't contain garlic but then I'll find out that it has garlic salt in it.
I ran a restaurant and encountered (a few) customers with onion and/or garlic allergies.
Looking to find some treats for my child. She is Ana to peanuts. No dairy baked eggs only no strawberry. I'm looking for cookies Candy or cup cakes. What are some brands that you Like or have tried.
I've got a genetic decreased metabolism of some drugs, my medical professionals told me not to take anything w/o their permission, & I tend to be oversensitive to most. OTOH, melatonin did nothing for me. 🦄
George, I didn't find the CBD gummies did anything for me for sleep either. Neither do the melatonin gummies. I don't want to take sleeping pills of any sort so I get by. Thanks for responding.
Agree
My daughter had an allergy test done which came up positive for eggs, milk, soy, dust mites, dander, mould, grass, wheat and her highest being peanuts. So I just want to find out if tree nuts will also affect her since it was not specifically mentioned on her allergy test results.
I learned through allergy tests that I can have tree nuts but not peanuts unless the nuts are roasted in peanut oil. However, I can have Chick-fil-A.
I am newly diagnosed (less than three weeks) and my husband just is not getting how severely allergic I am to shellfish! He made me react twice. The first time was a learning curve! Second time he used a pan and didn't clean it well I used it later to cook land I ended up in the hospital! I know it takes awhile for everyone to learn to live with allergies but does anyone have advice that would help to speed the process along! Thanks so much!!!
I’m still trying to figure this one out with my husband… He was good about it when we first married, but the last few years have been awful with reaction after reaction. He’s seen them. I’ve even gone… read more
Suggestion on how to help your server in a restaurant be sure you don't get something you shouldn't have
CHEF CARDS
I have posted this before, but perhaps time to do so again. https://www.foodallergy.org/sites/default/files...
You can download these cards which you customize with your allergies or food intolerances. Laminate them and give one to your server when you go out to eat and ask them to show the chef. If you have foods that would require you to use your epipen if eaten - be… read more
I've almost always been thanked for using my chef card, I even make one in Spanish and French for when I travel. Only twice have I been told "we don't have anything you can eat". I also make sure I… read more
I have a lot of food allergies. I am terrified of having strangers cook my meals not understanding my food allergies and other health problems food based needs.
Does anyone else fear a long enough stay at a hospital or nursing home for you to eat several meals cooked in a setting not controlled by you? Do you have some food allergens that have many different names on food products and therefor difficult for a stranger to make sure there is no cross contamination or straight up… read more
You all realize of course that these people have your life care in their hands. After stroke it amazed me that they didn't even know much of allergies. The stroke was caused by food allergies! My… read more
Grocery items I used to buy have sea salt included now. Some restaurants use sea salt now.
I forgot to add- I literally foam at the mouth and will drool uncontrollably afterwards. No one has ever heard of this that I've talked to. I generally stay away from shellfish/fish because I'm sure… read more
