Having a food allergy can make anyone’s life much more challenging. There’s no such thing as ordering an item off a restaurant’s menu without clarifying with the server that it won’t have any contact with nuts, dairy, gluten, shellfish or anything else that will cause your throat to swell up. You’ll obsessively check labels of food items to see if there could be any cross contamination, and you’ll never leave the house without an EpiPen.
Inevitably, though, everyone with allergies will at some point encounter a person who doesn’t take their allergies seriously. And this can be even more disappointing when the culprit is a close friend or family member. Below, you’ll find a story that was shared on Reddit detailing how one woman poisoned her friend’s granddaughter by insisting on feeding her cookies.
