[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bet BIL already knows and doesn’t care enough to tell his wife. Because he knows what would happen. I’d stay quiet. [b]Or tell your husband and let him decide what to do.[/b] [/quote]
This is the only right answer here.

BTW, for the folks suggesting that it's preferable not to tell SIL, would you feel the same if it were a religious dietary restriction?[/quote]

Pp from above who replied to not intervene: yes, The only situation in which I would feel that it is important to put immediate stop to it is if it was due to an allergy. So, if SIL is allergic to shrimps and mil made fish paella with shrimp broth, I would speak up immediately. Otherwise, no.

If this were my mother and sister, I may or may not say anything, but being a guest at the in-laws, I would just not intervene. She has a husband, who is the woman’s son, your husband another son, let them figure it out on their own. Also, if the SIL has been happily coming to MIL’s house and consuming food with no incident so far, I just don’t see the point of bringing it up. Apparently, she’s not getting sick, or gagging, or even noticing. [/quote]
