The thing is Retlaw, if you make an eating establishment aware of your special needs and they say they can fulfil them, then if you suffer as a result of their failure to adequately do so, you could take legal action against them.
My nephew is severely allergic to Peanuts....he went to a chistmas party where they played cards and one of the boys had been eating peanuts before the game.....my nephew touched the cards handled by this boy, and ended up on a ventilator in ICU.
He is also allergic to milk and milk products....his reaction when he comes into contact with these is an anaphylactic shock....he carries and adrenaline pen everywhere he goes.
