| Butter on Vegetables |
Yup, you read right. In order to make sure your restaurant meal doesn't come with added butter, the doctors on the show suggest you tell a "little white lie" and say that you're allergic to butter.
Really?!?!
Not okay!
The food allergy community has come too far in educating restaurants to sit back and allow a TV show tell people it's okay to lie about a food allergy. Let's let them know that food allergies are real and we need for restaurant staff to take our allergies seriously. It looks like the only place to comment on the show is to fill out an "Ask the Doctor" form. Please take a few minutes and send a message that it's never okay to fake a food allergy.
Maybe the doctors could advise their listeners to just be truthful instead.

What's really bad about this is that if they mess up and the customer doesn't get sick (since they really don't have food allergies)-they will become more lenient since they think food allergies aren't that important.
That is beyond horrible! As someone with multiple food allergies, it's already frustrating for me to order food at a restaurant. Now I have to worry about my server not taking me seriously. What next?
