	I ask if any of the items I am allergic to are in the dish or dishes
being served. In restaurants I ask my waitperson. In catered situations I
will speak to the head of the caterers. In friends homes, if I wasn't in the
kitchen while things were being prepared I ask the cook. On those rare
occasions when the waitperson doesn't volunteer to check and does the duh
thing my husband growls and they go scurrying of and come back with an
answer. In this day of litigation most business people are more than happy
to tell me. If I can't find out I just wait to eat somewhere else. Margarite
