[quote=Anonymous]I have a few friends who have kids with allergies or who eat Halal or no shellfish and pork. When we are ordering food for large gatherings, they don't want for me to order any dishes their kid or they can't eat. But I don't see why their special need should mean that everyone else has to also be restricted. I completely understand that there should be appetizers, main dishes, sides, and desserts that each conform with their food restrictions. But if someone else really loves crab dip or bacon bits on some different dishes, why should the restricted person care? If someone has such a bad allergy that just being in the same room as a tree nut or a shrimp would cause them to pull out their epi pen, then I'd be sure to avoid that. These are situations where I'm paying. It's not a bill-splitting scenario where they don't want to pay for expensive lobster that they can't eat. [/quote]
