Health Tip: Watch for Food Allergies

Food allergies can make holiday parties worrisome, but there are steps you can take to protect yourself.

The American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology recommends that you:

  • Always ask about the ingredients of a dish before you taste it.
  • Know that food may be cross-contaminated if prepared near other foods.
  • Don’t eat foods that you’re not sure are safe.
  • Bring a few safe snacks.
  • Keep an epi-pen on hand.
