Welcoming Guests With Food Allergies

Earlier this year I posted about a Canadian program, the Food Allergy Management Manual for Restaurants and Food Services, and said that I hoped other restaurant associations would do something similar.

They have. FAAN (The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network) has put out an updated and revised Welcoming Guests With Food Allergies.

According to the press release:

this comprehensive program is an updated and revised version of an earlier training program published by the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN). This 60-page guide includes case studies, best practices, up-to-date research, food labeling information, and practical strategies for avoiding cross-contact, as well as suggested procedures for keeping guests safe and steps to prepare for an allergic emergency. Restaurants can use this guide as a basis for their food allergy management programs.

...

A training video for restaurant and food service staff is also available for purchase in English and Spanish.

UPDATE: The page to go to on the FAAN site to download a copy is Welcoming Guests With Food Allergies.
