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:

- 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.
