Father’s Day is all about celebrating togetherness—often with food at its heart. But for families managing food allergies, staying safe doesn’t have to dim the fun. Simple precautions can make a big difference:
- Ask before you eat. Even familiar dishes can hide allergens—think dressings with egg, salads garnished with nuts, or stuffing with milk or wheat. Taking a moment to ask can help avoid surprises.
- Bring something special. Make or pack allergy-safe treats so no one feels left out—and you’ll always have a reliable option, even if plans change. Freezing ready-made goodies means you’re prepared at short notice.
