[quote=Anonymous]DW has had a severe dairy allergy for 20 years. Dairy free replacements have come a long long way. The Silk Dairy Free Heavy Cream is a miracle product that's pretty much a 1:1 replacement to the real stuff. I've used in in everything from Crème Brulee to Creamed Spinach with fantastic results. We've found cheese to be toughest thing to replace and have melt and taste right. Daiya products are the current go to but its not 100%. Pretty much all the major brands sell vegan chocolate; DW does the higher (70% and greater) Ghirardelli bars without issue. Eating out can still be a challenge, particularly Italian and deserts. A menu might not say anything about cheese or cream but that doesn't mean they aren't throwing parmesan rinds in the pot of marinara back in the kitchen. Making your server aware as soon as you sit down will get rid a lot of the risk. [/quote]
