Thank you ~ mostly it's that this causes such distress. Anxiety. I wonder how may of us go through this....probably a lot more than you think.
In Aus, one of the products I love is now going to list Garlic even when in a tiny amount instead of Spices Added...they don't legally have to under a certain amount. People don't seem to realise that there are as many of us allergic to garlic and onions (Allium family) as there are people allergic to peanuts.
It is serious and it is scary to eat out anywhere. Our favourite burger place who know full well about my allergies messed up a couple of nights ago. People do not take this seriously enough....
Not really a problem....I don't need to eat out. But I do need to breathe when I'm out and there lies another problem. I never know what perfumes people will be wearing, so I never know if I am going to go from perfectly fine to panic attack and migraine. It is very very disconcerting.
