[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is asking too much.

And I say that as a mom to a child with 11 allergies. Yes, read that right eleven. We can’t ever eat takeout with him and I can’t trust food prepared in other people’s houses. It’s just a lot.

We always find out what the host is serving and we bring him something similar so he can be included.

I also feel like I’m a good host and I will try to accommodate others. A lot of people know about my son’s allergies and they have a little overlap so they eat at my house because they trust my kitchen. I also try to have something people can eat.[b] For example if a Jewish person comes to my house I would never serve pork, but I would never reorganize my entire kitchen to make it kosher. [/b]That’s too much to ask. The sister wanting to take over the kitchen to cook food just for her when OP is hosting a dozen others is that level of entitlement.

As a mom of a kid who could literally die if he eats the wrong thing, I think this “medical excuse” is asking way too much of the host. The sister needs to handle her own food without sucking all the oxygen out of the room. Maybe she should get an Airbnb instead of staying with family. [/quote]

You sound very nice, but just so you know, lots of Jewish people eat pork. And your kitchen could never be "reorganized" to make it kosher.[/quote]
