Allergies And University
Posted: 12-27-03 17:58pm

Hi i'm an egg and nut allergic teen who will be attending university next year in ontario, canada. I'm not sure where i'm going but a lot of the universities i've talked to don't seem to understand the risks of cross contamination and they are very rigid on thier food plan policies. I want to live in residence and have a typical college experience but I have to work around this problem! Does anyone have some suggestions or experiences they could share with me? If you could that would be greatly appreciated! Laughing

They need to be able to accomodate you.

The college that I go to has to put nutrition facts and ingredient lists for all foods offered. That way if there's something you need to watch for, you can. If there don't offer foods you can eat then speak with who runs the eating commons (Our people were usually walking around and making sure everything was running smoothingly), if that doesn't work then file a complaint.
