[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is such a petty vent. We were invited to a family friend's house for Thanksgiving. One of my favorite Thanksgiving foods is stuffing. These people put candied walnuts in their stuffing and I have a nut allergy. I may go buy some Stove Top tomorrow to have with my leftovers.

That's on you for not telling them about your nut allergy.[/quote]

I don't expect people to change their menu because of my allergy. It's easy enough for me to avoid things with nuts. I was simply bummed I couldn't have the stuffing. [/quote]

Nut allergy mom and aunt here, and also a hostess to someone who failed to tell me he was vegetarian because “he didn’t want to be a bother.”

Tell people. Offer to bring something. Tell them please make what you usually do, just let me know. And then they would be happy to accommodate you. What a dangerous game you are playing, one that is quite rude to your HOSTS. [/quote]

Nah, it’s fine as long as the person in question doesn’t make a thing of it. Not everyone has to eat everything. I don’t like cranberries; I wouldn’t expect them to be excluded from the meal (or a different fruit included) just because I’m not going to eat them. [/quote]
