    Umm, no you can't.

    Exactly. You're allergic to dairy (from a cow) but you can magically eat butter? When it's main ingredient is cream from COW'S MILK??

    Up here that's pretty common along with the peanut allergy. Not sure why places would have issues understanding it.
    Unless you keep going to Sam's Shellfish Hideaway for dinner

    Seriously...we had a kid up here go into anaphylactic shock and it made the local news. He had the peanut allergy and got the reaction from a food you'd never think would come close to peanuts. Something like salad or another side dish.
    Maybe that's what it takes, having a customer have a bad reaction and getting bad press before making a simple and easy change that could have easily been done to begin with to avoid the issue in the first place.

    Food prep stories like that scare me because the people responsible said they didn't know how the ___ got contaminated.

    I heard a horror story about a couple on vacation at a small island resort in Thailand.

    It's long but the bullet points are they both ate something, got violently ill for days, and due to bad resort maintenance support couldn't leave the island because there were no working boats.

    Women said she finally recovered after three days, husband was sick for five days and finally he was taken to the mainland for a hospital stay to replenish body fluids. He lost over 20 pounds in that time.

    I guess they used to travel a few times a year worldwide, they haven't left home since the experience and to this day don't know what got them sick.

    Too many people with "made up" allergies have ruined it for those with serious real problems.

    I know they worked there because I had to pick the most intelligent looking one on the way out so I could complain. She really didn't know what to say or how to handle it so I left.

    Do you guys have Phil's pancake houses down there? If not they're kind of like Denny's. Old school menu items and decor.

    My Dad would take me and my Mom there and in over 30 years we've never had a bad meal. They've never forgotten an item and we've never waited for menus or items no matter how busy they are.

    I'm beginning to see why my Dad liked it so much (I snobbily used to think it was a 'ghetto place' and embarrassing to visit)
    Yea, I've found some of the little dive places have the best food, biggest portions, cheap prices and great fast service. I've stopped a couple times at Catawba Inn (nicknamed Food Beer because that's what it says in huge letters on the side of the building). It's by the ferry dock to the island, I can order a burger and fries, comes out a huge 1/2 pound burger, giant portion of fries and a coke for like $12. And I'm in and out in well under an hour.

    I have no idea how the hell I managed to do this, but I just knocked one of my refrigerator door shelves out of the refrigerator and onto the floor. It was full of glass bottles. Oddly enough, the only thing that broke was the plastic shelf itself. Again, I have no idea how I managed to do it. I swear I didn't even hit it.

    Before that, a plate I was washing in the sink slipped out of my hand and into the sink, and the plate cracked, and a small sliver of a shard shot out of the sink and fell to the floor.

    I'm not having a very good day here. I think maybe I should just sit still and not move for the rest of the day.

    Have you broken a mirror? Any black cats cross your path? Go under a ladder recently?

    No. Mirrors are all fine. I don't know anybody around here that has a black cat, let alone any kind of cat. The neighbors here are all dog people. And there are/were no ladders anywhere as far as thee eye can see.

    Was there an Italian woman watching you during the seafood issue? Maybe she gave you the malocchio.
    I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.

    I think most full-blooded Italian women would know better than to eat at that restaurant.
