Inspired by the Food Allergy Fun graph of responses that Tiffany gets when she tells people her child has a food allergy, I made my own graph. These are the typical responses that I, as an adult, get when I tell people about my shellfish allergy & try to give a brief description of the dangers of cross-contamination.
This is what I hear all the time.

OH NO ~ I hoped eventually people would stop asking “When Will You Grow Out Of It” !? Like, after they’re 5. 8 at the latest. I’m assuming you’re at least 8. ;)
Ha ha. I’m 35. Usually it’s “Have you tried it lately? Maybe you grew out of it?” these days… Ha ha.
