[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really sad. With a diary allergy that severe it’s really not safe to eat out at all.[/quote] It really is so sad. And I imagine it must be really tough for people with these allergies to walk that line between staying safe, and living a normal life! Poor woman just wanted to enjoy her evening with her family. You are right that (I assume) she’d still be here had she prepared her dinner herself. But it does bring up an interesting point - IF (big if) the food was contaminated / the breading had nuts or dairy, it does seem like there should be liability here. I know the server is probably young and clueless and not making much money, but if that’s how it went down, that server basically killed her when he/she confirmed to her that the food was nut / dairy free. [/quote] No one is stealthily trying to kill people via their allergies. It is a big burden but[b] if you are that allergic to things [/b]you need to not eat in restaurants. [/quote] DP. You aren't "that allergic to things" until you are, and up till then in can be a mild reaction. Your judgmental tone isn't warranted by the facts at hand. Things may have been mild up until this point. [quote]You have eaten pineapple for as long as you can remember, but this time you find your lips tingle as you take a bite. Or maybe you ate your favorite shrimp scampi dinner only to discover you are covered with hives. Perhaps you are relaxing on your front porch when suddenly your eyes start getting itchy and your experience bouts of sneezing. [b]Is it possible that even as an adult you can suddenly develop allergies, both food and seasonal ones? The answer is an absolute yes. In fact, it is somewhat common to have allergies develop during adulthood, with no prior history.[/b] While it occurs in only about 5% of the adult population, it is currently a condition that is on the rise. https://www.verywellhealth.com/never-too-old-to-develop-a-food-allergy-1323934[/quote] [quote]Fact: There are no mild or severe food allergies—only mild to severe reactions.[b] What caused a mild reaction in the past may lead to a severe reaction in the future, and vice versa.
