What's this all about?
This is about food allergies, you, me, kids, travelling abroad, and eating out. Food allergies cause preventable deaths - particularly among children. An Allergy Card is one way to help minimize the risk of eating out - around town, or while travelling the world; whether you're 10 years old and on a school trip, or retired and trying a new restaurant.

What's an Allergy Card?
An Allergy Card is a wallet-size card that you can carry with you whenever you're planning on eating out. When you're ordering, just pass the card to your server, and ask them to pass it along to the person or people that will be preparing your food.

Who is it for?
Your Children: If you have a child with an allergy, help them get their message across - whether they're out with friends for lunch, or on school trips.
You: Use an allergy card to get your message across too. Especially if you're planning on travelling somewhere that you don't speak the local language, then make sure you can communicate your allergy.

Why use one?
Cross the language barrier: Allergy Cards are available in a variety of languages - make sure your allergy is understood, wherever your travels take you.
Get the message through: Giving your server a card to deliver changes an allergy from an asterix on a notepad to something real, and much less easily forgotten.
Circumvent the credibility gap: Not everyone takes a kid seriously. Giving your child an Allergy Card and teaching them how to use it helps make sure their message isn't ignored. The same idea, of course, applies to anyone of any age.

About this Site's Creator

I'm here in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I'm a web professional, and super-allergic to fish. Winnipeg is thankfully landlocked, making it one of the better places to live with an allergy like mine. I created this site to fill my own needs, and I'm happy to share it and hopefully help out fellow allergy sufferers.

You can reach me at rod@upcomingdiscs.com.

I also run: TechFold.com, BlockRocker.com, UpcomingDiscs.com, HDDb.net, and green blog at WorldChanging/Canada.
