[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We took my son with nut allergies to Italy last summer. My general rules were no desserts and no gelato. I wouldn’t do crepes in France. There’s too high of a risk of cross-contamination. Also, like French, there is no generic term for nuts in Italian. I had the allergy cards made to list each allergen specifically (walnut, almond, pistachio, cashew, pine nut; etc.). DS was annoyed that he couldn’t indulge in dessert (we did buy treats like gummi bears), but we made it through two weeks without incident.[/quote] I can't imagine Italy. My husband and I went there pre-kids and there were pistachios everywhere and I found restaurant servers to not take you seriously generally. For instance, I was pregnant at the time and would ask to not be seated in the smoking section and they would just ignore the request and sit us next to smoking people.[/quote]
