How do you respond without sounding mad?

>I’m sorry but our kitchen can’t meet the level of strict preparation you require. It simply isn’t safe for your child to dine here and we can’t risk your child’s health. We’re very sorry we can’t accommodate you.
Kitchens do some variation of that all the time when they don’t want to deal with super fussy crazies. The point is to tell the diner they can’t be served for their own safety.

I'd ask if her kid was allergic to a pop in the mouth every once in a while

That is really what goes on in the kitchen for most American restaurants. Some card ain't doing shit.

>"if you are willing to pay $230 and sign a liability forum we can absolutely accommodate your childs allergies"
>if this is fine we can find a way to make your child have an amicable dining experience please give us notice because we would love your family as customers

Worked every fucking time and its beer money for my employees

Lets not complicate things with explanations okay

Fuck that, I don't want to risk killing a child if forced to I'll quit over having to live the rest of my life knowing a kid died because a small mistake on my part

Genetic defects get a handful of peanuts down their throat.

I don't see the issue with bringing this with you if your kid might get rekt by ingesting any of those and need to roll the dice with an epi pen. It's like having one of those necklaces that says an allergy or condition like diabetes for if you're in a trauma situation and you're not consciously able to tell people. But it's totally reasonable for staff to come back and say you can't make sure 100% that any food served won't contain any one thing. In fact it's probably unreasonable to say that you can ensure that if you're not prepared in advance for that customer and it's being a shithead to spring such a thing on a restaurant when you walk in instead of calling ahead.

Everything would've been fine if it wasn't for 1/5 of the population pretending to be gluten intolerant. Funny how once the cost life living got higher the "allergy" went way down. I feel bad for people with real allergies.

I would refuse to cook for them. Any sane business owner would kick them out.
>"if you fuck up that complicate task, you will end up in jail for murder"
Yep, nope, go to mcdonald, they can afford lawyers. NEXT !

You don t go to restaurant with your kids, ever, and especially with your genetically defective ones. Just stay home and feed him carrots if carrots don t kill him. Don t unload your problem on others, it s basic politeness. Don t bring your dying kid into my house and accuse me of murdering him because he s allergic to people breathing.

Basically what the other anon said. Even if a place basically says "accommodating allergies is our specialty!" would you still risk the LIFE of your kid to eat out? It takes SO SO very little to add a deadly amount of whatever they can't eat. One fucking miscommunication. One dude confusing two things. One new worker or guy with language issues. One damn spoon going from one pot to the other where it doesn't belong. In a typically stressful environment with often young cooks on various doses of substances.
Bam, now they'll get a reaction and potentially die. Who would be "happy" to do this as long as the blame is legally shifted to the restaurant?

I have an aunt who has multiple things that gives her stomach cramps, including parsley, the thing every other place garnishes with, so she doesn't eat out, ever. It's not fatal but intensely painful if she gets any of that ingested.

Local newspaper even did a test of 30 places where they ordered things like "gluten free" "lactose free" (which was a written option) and only two of those were tested substantially free of it. You can't trust people in the food business to get it right. They barely believe the conditions are real.

The parents are just lawsuit baiting. Free money, kid disposal, it's win-win.

>>21584482
Unless they market their allergy free food pretty hard and lack basic legal protections it sounds like a pretty low-chance to get an actually-worth-it payout.

Kid might also survive but in a far worse condition. If anything, modern medicine is really good at keeping people alive in miserable states.

>>21584485
Parents aren't very smart

>>21583888
This exactly.
A pair of friends from highschool, brothers, started an extremely successful ice cream parlour and when someone says "I'm allergic to ________" they simply have the staff say something like "I'm sorry you waited in line this long but there's nothing we can serve you, not even a fountain soda; we can't even sell you a $4 bottle of Aquafina because we can't guarantee that someone with peanut fingers didn't touch it before you. Good bye."
It's a tourist spot with hour long lines and more than one snowflake has chimped out over the policy.
In my experience, people with legitimate allergies tend to look into this shit ahead of time.

Based. My in laws are allergic to shellfish and now I can't go out with my family to eat crab, oysters or squid

You're probably posting from Iran and have never interacted with Americans ever in your life, don't lie.

I know people don't read signs but it's satisfying on a fundamental level to point at a BIG FUCKING SIGN saying "NO ALLERGY EXCEPTIONS" and give the excuse you mentioned.
Especially when they sometimes say "There wasn't any sign!" and you get to tap it right next to you and give them the ol' "oh buddy.." eyes.
They will still chimp out like the subhumans they are but the humiliation of everyone in line basically going "What a fucking retard" with various looks is priceless.

I think they require the wafers to be specifically made out of wheat, so gluten free wafers aren't up to code.

>>21584517
>I know people don't read signs
They offer an enormous ice cream sundae called Mt Vesuvius. On more than one occasion, some retard has called either Mister Vesuvius, Mister Vestvis or Mister Vesuvio. The younger brother time me that once, a guy called it Mr Festivus and he looked like a tall George Costanza.
So even if they read the sign, they didn't read it correctly. People are dumb. I mean… they're paying $15 for an ice cream cone. They can't be that smart.

If you can communicate what you want spending minimal time, then you're a premium customer. Be that by pointing or just saying vague likenesses of the word then more power to them.
If the order is heavily customized to hell and you can barely move your tongue or vocalize over the ambient noise AND bitch about minor mistakes later, to hell with ya.
