What an allergy card can and cannot do
A written card helps make your allergy, restricted foods, and request for careful preparation easier to understand. It is a communication aid, not a guarantee that a meal is free from an allergen. Always tell your server about your allergy and confirm ingredients, preparation, and cross-contact with the restaurant team. Follow the emergency plan provided by your healthcare professional.
Once you have your card, you can also learn about the free allergy menu scanner in the Food Allergy Options iPhone app, or read our guide on using food allergy cards when eating out.
