What my resources taught me

My resources have taught me that not everyone gets tested for a food allergy. Sometimes they don't find out until their first allergic reaction. In most restaurants, they do not aware you that their will be a trace of a certain food in your dish. Also in my resources. I learn that at most times children that have a food allergy sometimes have the gene passed down to them by their parents. At times, there is a parent in that has the same allergy and then the end up passing it down to their child. It could also be cause by a history of the same food allergy down the family line as well. In some school district, cafeteria and nurses office are making it aware that children in their school have a food allergy and should make aware to the cafeteria staff what child has what food allergy and should make it their best to their ability to have something for the child that has a food allergy. Cafeteria staff are also taking into consideration that they should be well trained in trying to decrease the number of food being crossed over. If a utensil is being used to serve a specific food, then it should be used for that dish and that dish only. For example, if they are preparing fruit cocktails for dessert, then it should be used for the fruit and not for something like apple sauce or chocolate pudding.
