Hello all,
well, it looks like I am going to be in WDW with someone who has severe allergies to most foods. You can list on a single page the foods that she can eat! This includes most spices, condiments, sauces, coatings etc. Every box in the allergies listed when making reservations is ticked as allergens as well as the 'other'. The allergies are not limited to common allergens. Is there anywhere that I can call to speak to chefs about her ability to eat in WDW during our trip? She would like to eat with us, even if she has to bring/prepare her own food, but she would rather not pay for food that she cannot even touch.
For example, she cannot eat any beef, chicken, pork or fish other than sockeye salmon. She can eat plain lamb. That is it for protein. She cannot eat potatoes or rice or bread. The list of what she cannot eat is massive. This is not something that the chef would be able to plan for with only one day advance notice.
Has anyone had experience with this? What should I do? I am hoping that WDW will accommodate her at least some times. We plan to go to a supermarket and have some food in the room for her so she will be able to survive, but we would all like to eat out sometimes. She NEVER gets to eat out. It would be a real treat for her.
Thanks for any advice, experiences!
