SC - Allergy rant

[THL Renata]

I can agree with people at feasts who let people know things.  I have no
problems when things are done on a shoestring (a week notice for a feast)
and someone lets me know of an allergy that day.  But as I assisted in
serving a feast recently someone came to me and asked for a special plate
for an entire table that people who were alcohol intolerant and we made
pears in wine sauce.  I made up a special plate for the *entire* table as
the gentlemen asked.  Then he came back a few minutes later complaining that
the people at the table who were not intolerant wanted another plate with
the pears.  This frustrated me greatly.  Why not just say "I have a couple
of people who can not have alcohol, can we make their servings separate?"
instead of insisting on feeding the entire table different and having the
rest complain.
