A few people can't digest lactose, OK

"Hungry people ain't allergic to shit."

I love it.

Just like anorexia sufferers are concentrated in the Upper Middle Class and beyond... but all but non-existent in the working class or underclass.

Some food allergies are quite real, as the cited lactose and also sprue (wheat gliadin), peanuts, etc. However, demanding, self absorbed narcissists will jump on any bandwagon to declare themselves exceptional and demand that society cater to their every whims.

Of course, now you always have the lawyers following their professional clients into every business that can be legally plundered on any premise. I just heard about a 30K settlement over a 'service dog' that wasn't allowed in a meeting in Santa Cruz. I gather that 'service animals' are now the new crutch for frivolous lawsuits under ADA.

'service animals'

I will bring my emotional support rattlesnake to meeting. And yes, it is real.

Anybody who has a pet that is a key component to his or her emotional health, comfort, and well-being can qualify for an emotional support animal. There are numerous emotional and psychological disorders in which the symptoms are helped by having the presence of an animal companion nearby. If you qualify for an ESA, you are in need of having that animal around you in order to create a better life for yourself.

People with food allergies should be barred from eating at public places without inquiring if food they are allergic to is being prepared or sold to.

If I had a life threatening food allergy, I wouldn't eat at any restaurant...It's not as if I'd be missing out on anything anyways.

I'm allergic to eggplant. It makes my lips get itchy and puffy. But I fucking love eggplant and eat it at least once a week.

If you qualify for an ESA [(Emotional Support Animal)], you are in need of having that animal around you in order to create a better life for yourself.

After "create a better life for yourself" you forgot to add "and create a worse life for all the people around you." Guide dogs for the blind are a COMPLETELY different situation; these dogs are clean and well behaved; also, I'm more than willing to give some extra flexibility to someone who is blind.

Hmm.... can I qualify for an ESF ? (Emotional Support Firearm) . I feel a lot safer walking around with an M16; anything less would simply not be enough!

I think that airplanes should allow me to have my emotional support elephant on all flights at no charge. Or at least emotional support tiger.

Maybe Jeffrey Epstein should claim Emotional Support Underaged Girls. Might fly in this insane, LibbyFuck world, run it by Dershi-cakes.

bottom line...LOL..

It's almost all self-absorbed bullshit. A few people can't digest lactose, OK

I'm allergic to women w balls.

Patrick says

The recent trend toward "discovering" your food allergies is very similar to "discovering" your abnormal sexuality.

Say, whatever happened to that feature that highlighted the words you and your?

Was that a "feature"? I think it got eliminated due to the new non-binary gender rules....Now only the words "they" and "ze" get highlighted.

Lol, it started to feel overly annoying.

Good summary.

If you don't make me feel like a 'normal' very special person, I'm just going to shoot you.

I was in a restaurant in Princeton, which is lib central. The girl who was 17 was complaining so everyone could hear about how Trump got elected. This went on for a whole hour. When it came time for her to order dessert, she declared her "gluten allergy" to the waitress.

The allergy I hate the most having kids is peanut allergies. I've yet to meet just ONE person with a peanut allergy. Kid or adult. Being very serious.

We're now banned from packing a god damn PB&J to any organized kid function because of these unicorn kids with an allergy I've yet to know anyone to actually have. How about you teach your kid not to touch nuts (there's a joke there, right) or other peoples food? A classic childhood staple has now gone to shit because 1 in a million kids swells up when they even see a nut.

It's happening with a lot of things now. We make the majority bend over backwards for a tiny, tiny minority of people. Hell, probably 50 years ago you'd just die from the peanut you ate and we'd all be better for it. But now you can't send a fucking simple sandwich in your kids lunchbox because of these fucks. The weak would usually die young, but now they're breeding because of "allergies" or whatever. I think we're seeing the results of evolution in real time as we've become more PC in our ways.

9.6 out of 10. Peanuts, however are a legit and easily identifiable food allergy. I knew a guy on the trading floor who carried an EpiPen in his pocket at all times. Dude didn't give a fuck if you ate peanuts near him though, cause he wasnt gonna tell 100 other men in a trading pit what to eat. Those of us within spitting distance were respectful of his condition, at least partially because he didn't enforce it upon us.

How about gluten X?

Peanut allergies are real and can be severe in extreme cases fatal that's why kids who really have that should always carry epipens. I hated that too in our case even Nutella was banned as most schools will just go the no any nuts route period. Esp. in litigious states. However it makes sense for those mostly preschools and it's not that much of a burden for a few years.

I know it's real. I completely disagree though that the vast, super vast majority of kids should have to change their lives at all for it. There's a reason these allergies are more prevalent. We're breeding them back in cause they don't die like they used to. It's a jaded point of view, but they need to figure out how to live with it. Or just don't go out in public.

It's also eliminated a high protein, and not total shit food from many kids diets for a third of their meals a day if we're talking school days. If you've got an elementary school of 500 kids, there's what, probably 1-3 kids that "might" have a peanut allergy? In poorer districts the parents will just throw shit in the lunchbox. They've taken away a massively cheap option with the PB&J to appease a super tiny minority.

Generally I agree with you, just saying that it's not for that long and when the kids are older then you can pack your kids whatever you want or tell the school/institution to go to hell. I can see that making sense for the little ones that might out of impulse take someone else's food that they left around, and the preschool personnel cannot watch every kid like a hawk all the time. I do think this nonsense should stop starting in elementary school - where it stopped for us it was only a mandate in preschool. I can live with that. But yes, generally we are not teaching kids any responsibility anymore and that it's always someone else's fault, impose the burden on the majority and later in life these kids won't accomplish anything.

Schools should not cater to any dietary restrictions, unless they are add-ons, certainly not reduce the options for the majority. From elementary school age on kids should have been taught basic skills of life.

I agree. It's one thing to not provide nuts with school provided lunches (I'm fine with that), but to prevent parents from sending their kids with food they want them to eat is absolute bullshit. It's especially a problem in poor areas. They replace it with shit food and we end up with a bunch of fat fucks.

The peanut lobby needs to up their god damn game those lazy fucks.

A meta-analysis found that death due to overall food-induced anaphylaxis was 1.8 per million person-years in people having food allergies, with peanut as the most common allergen.[30] However, there are opinions that the measures taken in response to the threat may be an over-reaction out of proportion to the level of danger. Media sensationalism has been blamed for anxiety outweighing reality.[44]

And that's for all food induced allergic reactions.

Wow.

Interestingly, there is one food item nobody is allergic to: Any and all land-based meat.

There's only one syndrome that effects meat protein synthesis, which comes from a bit of a SW US/NW Mexican insect. Nobody is inherently allergic to meat.

Put there are a great many plant allergies.

Just sayin'

What about all that hair on the palms when you beat your meat?

Unfortunately, since most of these histrionic food declarations are just LibbyFuck mincing, you don't stand a chance of offing them with their alleged sensitivities.

Yup. Move 5 of the zeros to the other side and that’s what we’re worried about mathematically. It’s a joke.

Far more people are killed by cars every day.

Patrick says

Absolutely. However the reason the preschools and maybe some schools in CA do outlaw nuts is because it takes only one incident for them to be sued into bankruptcy and out of existence. As long as the laws don't change this crap will continue.

I guess at least private schools could refuse to take kids with these allergies and/or require to sign a waiver but the leftoid press and sjws would be all over it.

More people are killed in cheerleading mishaps.

BAN CHEERLEADING!! It's a racist tool of the patriarchy, and needs to go.
