In my case, because I haven’t wanted to get tested and can’t get an epi-pen without it, I just ALWAYS carry around a full box of diphenhydramine (don’t ever do what I do, I’m a moron about not getting allergy tested, as well as taking 2 dozen of diphenhydramine which I tolerate okay but someone else could overdose) because sometimes different foods trigger a “glass shard” feeling in my throat.Īnd while I’ve been in full anaphylactic shock, due to a medication reaction, that was when I was in labor with my youngest and I was in a hospital full of physicians when that happened and it STILL was terrifying. While the pharmacy on site, gave her epinephrine, it DID NOT work, because she was on a beta blocker. She went into FULL anaphylactic shock, when eating a sample food, that had a small amount of an ingredient at a big box store, before she knew she was allergic to it. It’s ironic as I was already going to write a blog of this nature, I was with a friend a couple of days ago and we were talking about our own wacky biological makeups. One may want to eat a certain way for religious, spiritual, health and/or any other reason and one is a somewhat rationally minded adult (I’m not talking in regards to people who have Pica, etc and NOT talking about parents with their OWN children who don’t like feeding them sugar, GMOs etc).Īnd that’s great, as it’s your body, your business, your life.ĭO NOT EVER though, “surprise” anyone with one’s food philosophy, like NEVER EVER DO THAT!!!Īnd because where people have different types of adverse reactions to different foods, sometimes deadly allergies, and they don’t have a certain kind of dietary philosophy and trying to surprise someone with that, could end their life, if not cause unnecessary medical, physical and/or emotional distress.
I will defend until the day I DIE, people having any kind of food beliefs for any reason. So I’m reading my local news today and catch actually, an older article on a local couple who were suing their wedding vendors, because they wanted to surprise their guests with an all vegan meal but not reveal that it was vegan, until the end of the reception, last Spring.Īpparently not only did it taste terrible and not well made but some of the workers at the wedding, did actually admit prior to the meal being over, that the wedding was vegan mandated in accordance to the wishes of the bride. In my top 3 though, of surprises that I HATE, has to do with food. I don’t like surprises, like of ANY kind.
