Auto immune disease, but for me it's a lot easier to say that I've got an allergy because it's the only way people take it seriously and stop trying to force me to eat their fucking food that could make me sick for weeks.
Heard a story about a woman wanted a dish made a certain way i think for allergen reasons, the chef did his best to accommodate while keeping the dish as true as he could. Her partner ordered same dish without changes.
Meals were served, she promptly starts picking at her partners plate to see how different they were. >

I really read this the first couple times as “people with allergies shouldn’t eat people out” 
and I was really confused and dying to see the comments. >

Nut allergy is serious business man >

Allergic to shellfish 🤷🏻‍♀️ >

No bearded clams for you! >

It's not that people with severe allergies shouldn't eat out, but rather, they shouldn't try to order something that has the ingredient they're allergic to and doesn't have an easy or obvious substitution. >

Then they go to bakeries and ask for something gluten free >

Gluten is not the sort of allergy that kills you by traces of the allergen. >

I guess celiac isn't technically an allergy, but traces of gluten will do some pretty serious damage in the long run >

It is an allergy. It is diagnosed by the presence of antibodies to gluten.
