I just love it when ppl who know they have allergic reactions to certain things still want that item

.... the other day someone who was allergic to chocolate ordered the cheesecake that has chocolate in it...she insisted that she wanted the cheesecake after it was made very VERY clear there was chocolate in it. I covered my butt by telling her so what happenes to her afterwards is all on her. and the same thing when i worked in DTD a guest who was allergic to peanuts wanted a peanut butter cookie... i warned them
what happens after is on them

They really should know all their allergies and what they can not have. I hope you called a nurse to have on stand by just in case they don't listen.

I HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES, CELIAC AND FOOD SENSITIVITIES.
People with special diets for the most part listen to staff and will not eat what they are allergic to. There are however people who despite warnings will ride rides that they should not, take their kids in scary shows, and eat crap they should not eat.
Some people do not understand food allergies or think they can pick out the stuff the are allergic to., I am allergic to chocolate but not bad so I so no chocolate but if it is a tiny smidge I eat it. Not dairy either but I do eat cheese on my beans. Sometimes people do not listen.
I am very diligent and know my limits but do make sure that what I am eating is within those limits.

"Are they that dumb?!?!?" Why, yes. If they weren't, this website couldn't exist!

I have to say, I'm allergic to chocolate as well, but that doesn't keep me from eating it. It keeps me from eating it in -large amounts-. Allergies do come in different strengths. I practically have to eat a pound of chocolate before I get any reaction, and even then, it's mild.
I can't say if that was this woman's case, or if she really was just that dumb...

When I eat lots of chocolate, I swell up. Pound by pound. Does that make me allergic?

:D:

Speaking of pounding down things, How about a rack or two of beer.
Darph, I'm surprised I beat you to this!

I guess that would be better than pounding sand! :kaboom:
