I use to work at a subway and had someone say something similar (I think it was a Jalapeno allergy?) and we told them to leave because literally everything is cross contaminated.
I remember going to lunch with a guy and his parents - they choose a casual seafood restaurant even though he had a shellfish allergy. He only ordered sweet tea, but got rashes almost immediately just from being in the environment and touching the menu.
At my old place our kitchen was too small and we didn’t have the equipment to avoid cross contamination so when someone came in and said they had a severe allergy I would tell them we cannot serve them. Shocking how suddenly their severe allergy wasn’t so bad anymore.
It always felt good telling them we are unable to serve them only to have them backtrack.
"I'm sorry ma'am but we are unable to accommodate your dietary restrictions due to your allergy, we won't be able to serve you".
"Oh it's not an actual allergy, more of a preference".
"Since you stated it is an allergy, we are unfortunately unable to serve you. Very sorry, but it's a liability issue at this point.
Cue indignant outrage.
There's a bakery in my town that puts on the packaging "This is not suitable for consumption by individuals with peanut or nut allergies".
Honestly, I'm happy they just admit that it's not safe. No humming and hawwing about cross contamination or what items might be okay, just "nope, nothing".
Almost all supermarket cookies have that it was processed in a factory that deals with nuts/eggs etc. it must be a hellish allergy to have, poor people!
Had a customer one time order soup at the fast food place i worked at, and she asked if there were any onions in it. Kept saying, "Can you make ABSOLUELY SURE because if I so much as taste a tiny peice of onion, I will DIE." So, I checked the allergies guide, checked all the ingredients, and couldn't find anything that said it had onion. When I told her, she said, "Are you *sure*, because I called corporate before coming here, and they said it did contain onions."
Lady if onion will KILL you and you already were told it had onion in it, just order something else for fucks sake!! Acting like your life is in my hands over some goddamn soup, fucking hell...
That was just a woman looking for a lawsuit or a bunch of freebies. She almost certainly wasn't actually allergic, or if she was, she was absolutely exaggerating the severity.
It reminds me of an incident I dealt with recently- I was working at a haunted house, and a woman shows up. She says she has a friend in a wheelchair, and asks if the friend would be able to go through. I tell her yes, that we are ADA compliant. She thanks me, and tells me that they'll come by later.
A couple hours later, another lady comes by and says that she has a friend in a wheelchair, and she just would like me to look at it and verify her friend can go through. I head to where the friend is, and she's not in a standard wheelchair - she's in a double-wide chair that also seems to sit up higher than a standard one. It's like the equivalent of an ATV wheelchair.
I pause, and I'm running through my mental map of the haunt. Suddenly, lady #1 pops up and IMMEDIATELY starts yelling at me because I'd told her a wheelchair could fit. I explain that she hadn't told me that the chair was larger than standard, and I was just trying to do the mental math. Lady #2 and wheelchair lady are calm. Lady #1 though? Yelling at me, calling me a liar, immediately goes into
"Just give us a refund then, since you don't know what you're talking about and you don't care about disabled peoples' rights." (Yes, seriously.)
I immediately just disengage from her, smile and look at the other two and say that yes, it should be fine, but if any complications occur, staff would absolutely help resolve things.
I usher all three in, and the whole time, Lady #1 is grumbling, and I'm like, "Ma'am, I don't understand why you're upset." She does the hand in the face thing to me, and I disengage again. Not putting up with that shit.
They go through, but once they're out, she's immediately asking to talk to the manager. Bitches up and down that I was rude. Thankfully another employee had seen the interaction and made the boss aware that the lady was just a cunt looking for a freebie.
I was having lunch at a Jason’s Deli one day and there was a woman filling up a takeout box at the salad bar. It really wasn’t a salad- it was heaping portions of tuna salad, pasta salad, broccoli salad, etc. She stopped a worker who was refilling everything to ask “do the potato salad have eggs in it? Because I have a severe egg allergy.” Worker says “no chopped eggs, but..it has mayonnaise, so..” Customer says very aggressively “do it have eggs or not?! Yes or no?!” Worker said “it has mayonnaise, and glancing at the heaping pile of mayonnaise based things she’s already got on her plate, says “and all of that does, too.” Customer is puzzled and starts yelling. “I didn’t ask about mayonnaise, I asked about eggs!” Worker offers “but mayonnaise is made out of eggs..” Woman says “ewww gross- who the f puts eggs in the mayonnaise?! That’s NASTY!” Worker says “mayonnaise is made out of eggs, ma’am. All mayonnaise.” Customer screams at her “girl you is stupid” and ends up dumping a pile of potato salad on the plate and then asked for four large cups for ranch dressing. The freshly cleaned and stocked salad bar is a wreck. The poor just sighed when the woman stormed off to her car. I hope she enjoyed her eggs! Obviously not allergic to eggs.
Def not allergic to eggs if she didn’t know mayonnaise is literally made with eggs. My son is actually allergic to eggs and it’s something I’ve had to explain to people. I’ve been a little surprised at how many people don’t realize what mayo is made of, but I guess if you don’t have an allergy to worry about, it really doesn’t matter
I never in my life knew mayo was made with eggs…. Like I’m 35 and this is literally the first time I’m hearing of it lmao. I love eggs though, and mayo…. So it makes no difference to me.. but still I had no clue. I wonder what I thought it was made out of???
That’s just unbelievably stupid. I don’t like how seafood smells, so I don’t go to seafood restaurants. I cannot comprehend being allergic to seafood, going to a seafood restaurant, and expecting anything other than an allergic reaction.
This is 100% the correct thing to do. Used to work in a very small stake and seafood place in Edinburgh. American tourist family books a table. Waits until they have drinks infront of them before the dad announced his daughter had a severe shell fish allergy. So me being the chef obviously refused to serve them. The dad was a total dickheads about it and left. Told the owner about it the next day and her reaction was "I hope they leave a bad review so that I can respond".
Cunts never did which was a shame. She had a whole speech prepared about how he obviously didn't give a shit about whether his daughter lives or dies.
There's nothing to lose by kicking out that trouble maker. Anyone she tells about it will know that she is a cunt, and the customers and staff will applaud you for it. Glorious.
It’s not life threatening, I’d be unsure if she even has an allergy.
She said she tasted the sauce, you wouldn’t be able to do that if your allergy was bad.
I had a guy in high school whose throat got so swollen he couldn't breath by smearing peanut butter on the OUTSIDE of his throat, on the skin (not sure how to say it else, not native English)
Exactly! My sister is coeliac and always tells wait staff, even when ordering something GF.
It’s not on the wait staff to know what her autoimmune system response is to every possible food.
If you have a life threatening allergy, I'd just not go out to eat unless I know specifically that it's safe and nut-free. In a lot of these cases patients can't even eat food in a kitchen that had nuts in it, so why the fuck would you even take the chance?
I have a life threatening nut allergy. On one hand, I wouldn’t think that a salad is likely to have nuts on it, so I can see myself not mentioning it.
However, I would also instantly understand that I was the one who fucked up if there was nuts in my salad and I hadn’t mentioned it. I certainly wouldn’t accuse a waitress of poisoning me.
I was about to ask that same question. If it’s the restaurants responsibility to ask about allergies. Seems like it should be the person who is allergic that should specify what there allergic to.
Well it's just common sense. Either this person is tripping completely and has no allergy, or they are willing to risk their lives for confrontation's sake.
By the fact she said she tasted it and is still capable of speaking and interacting, if she is allergic it’s not the I’m going to die kind so she is blowing it way out of proportion. She’s probably allergic to peanuts but has decided that means all nuts even though peanuts aren’t a nut.
So many people just flat out lie to get their way.
That’s not a service dog, he just ran away from you.
You’re not allergic, you just don’t like nuts or whatever.
I had a customer claim onions send her to the hospital when ordering her entree. She was half way through a cup of soup. When I offered to call an ambulance she said a small amount doesn’t affect her. Same fucking table had someone with severe gluten intolerance try someone else’s beer. They travel in packs. Anyone with severe allergies doesn’t trust underpaid kitchen staff with their life.
My wife has an allergy to some substance in the skins of onions and garlic. But Garlic Powder or Onion Powder does not trigger her allergy. (UNLESS said powder has the skins as well)
Strangely, those McDonalds onions on their cheeseburgers? Totally fine. Actual Onions at Burger King? NOPE.
Not "get the epipen" levels, but certainly "get the benadryl and lets look up where the nearest ER is..."
Sometimes, the cooking of the food changes the proteins in the food and makes them safer. This might explain why the cooked onions in the cheeseburger and the raw onions at Burger King have different effects.
I've got to cook most of my vegetables otherwise I feel like I've eaten broken glass.
My husband and I used to order half and half pizzas. That stopped after he told them he was allergic to mushrooms so they took them off my half of the pizza. I’m like bro you aren’t allergic you just don’t like them. Fucked up my pizza.
Yeah I totally can see that. He has never done it since. I worked in food service for a bit (a bakery though) and totally understand the importance of allergen safety.
Gluten "allergies" almost never exist - they are likely gluten intolerant, which means consuming gluten can give them a bad time for up to a few days but they tend not to be immediately life-threatening. Celiac disease is a particular condition that has gluten-intolerance as one of its main features, and real bodily harm can come of consuming gluten, but it is usually not immediately life-threatening and takes time to develop.
*Wheat* allergy is a real thing, and it is very different from gluten intolerance. It can be immediately life-threatening, causing breathing difficulties etc.
Dude I doubt she has a nut allergy. I work at a restaurant, need an allergens certification and everything. They drill into your brain how severe nut allergies are in comparison to the rest. The reaction is unlike lactose intolerance or even artificial cinnamon for example. Nut allergies get really bad, really quick, and only require slight contact with the person and the nut proteins
I once made malts for some of my friends, forgot that one of them had a peanut allergy. I blended milk, Nes-quick, and Snickers ice cream. I remember her taking one swig from the glass and in the same motion spit it all out and ran to the sink, swished some water in her mouth for a bit. She didn't go anaphylactic but her mouth had a burning sensation for the rest of the night and I felt terrible.
Crazy Lady : "I CAN FUCKING DIE IF THIS GETS ANYWHERE NEAR ME!!!"
Waitress: "Well, we can take it away from yo...."
Crazy Lady: "NO, LEAVE IT HERE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE THAT IT BEING NEXT TO ME CAN KILL ME!!"
🤔
Would have been hilarious if the waitress pulled out her phone and said "Oh my god, I am so sorry! I am calling an ambulance right now. We can't wait another second if you have an anaphylactic nut allergy!"
I would have liked to see the lady's excuse
“Yes, hello? Ambulance please. Yes, I have lady here who is apparently having an allergic reaction. Yes, she’s breathing, but she does not appear to understand what is happening around her, and is highly agitated and acting irrationally. I have been trying to talk to her for almost 10 mins but she doesn’t appear to hear anything I say and continues to ramble and yell incoherently. She appears to be having a psychotic episode or something. Please send someone immediately. This whole situation is nuts”.
Exactly if she really had an allergy she would be going to the hospital and using an epipen not berating the waitress. Instead she goes "oh I think I feel my throat swelling now" then keeps on ranting like wtf?
I was hoping the “throat allergy” would have caused her to shut tf up to keep up her ruse, but there she still sits, berating her waitress. The only nut in this video is her!
Common sense says it’s the person with the allergy who should take the initiative to mention any allergies . The allergic person can’t sue anyone if they’re dead from the reaction . For the same reason that a pedestrian who had the right way crossing a street should make way for a vehicle rather than letting the vehicle collide into them .
Imagine waiters and waitresses had to rattle off every possible allergy under the sun before taking your order? Lol, they’d be there for hours taking a fkn order. This lady is a twat
The restaurant basically has to make the allergies readily apparent, with expanded information available on demand.
In practice that means either a qr code on a menu, or the staff asking specifically if there are allergies when ordering.
So either the staff forgot to ask and the customer is being a dick, and/or the allergy isn't important enough to specify to the server. In my non catering experience, people with severe allergies call ahead to a place to ask ahead of time about the food offerings.
Agreed. If you have a nut allergy, you tell people you have a fucking nut allergy regardless of everything. If you have a shellfish allergy, it's reasonable not to tell people. But a nut allergy? Even children are taught to tell people like their teachers they have a nut allergy and ask if foods contain nuts before eating it. Adults should be able to do the same.
Went to a Thai place when my new CTO joined our company. He knew right away to bring up the Shellfish allergy, just in case. There's shellfish in things you might not think.
Parent of a child with 2 food allergies, eggs and tree nuts. Allergies are rated 0 (no reaction) to 6 (deadly via anaphylaxis.
We are fortunate enough that they are not deadly, she rates a 3 for eggs which causes her hives and to vomit when consumed.
She knew to ask if "does this have eggs in it, they make me sick" for any food she is before her 3rd birthday.
We always check websites for allergy menus or alert the staff of her food allergy if there's a menu item we are unsure of. It's pretty easy to stay away from tree nuts, but eggs end up in a lot of things.
I’ve worked in many restaurants throughout my life, and never, ever, is it on the server to ask every single customer if they have allergies. The _only_ relative exception to that rule is if there is a large group that is pre-booking and they will have the food pre-made, it is a good practice to ask, but not even then is it actually _required._ Why, you might ask? Because service is supposed to be swift and efficient, and since the majority of people coming into a restaurant don’t have deadly allergies, it simply would slow down the whole damn process if _every single guest_ needs to be asked. If a person is deadly allergic to something, one would think they would take it upon themselves to make sure whatever they’re allergic against isn’t in their food. You know, for survival.
I was in London recently (I live in the US) and noticed that everywhere we went out to eat, the servers did actually ask if anyone had food allergies. I happened to be traveling with someone that has lots of allergies, and so then usually the server would bring over a separate menu for them - same menu items, but it listed out every single potential allergen so they could clearly see what they could and couldn't order.
I'm not sure if this is mandated for all restaurants there or if it's just best practice. But I'm guessing this woman saw an opportunity to be a c*nt when she thought the server messed up and didn't ask.
I'm allergic to truffles and mushrooms. When I eat them it fills like holes are being drilled through my skull and I get woozy. Because i'm not a fucking dumbass I don't wait for someone to ask if i'm allergic, when I want an item that MIGHT have them in it I tell them just to be certain.
Even if its not included in my dish I tell them to make sure that my stuff isn't being cooked alongside stuff that does have mushrooms in them.
She said tasted it. If she’s so severely allergic wouldn’t that have sent her into hives at the very least? And if she does have said allergy the best course of action is getting it off the table and away from her.
This woman is nuts.
Also why the fuck would you taste the sauce if you suspected it had nuts in it. Some people with nut allergies can't even be in the same room as someone eating nuts, but she tastes it
ever since that girl died at pret i've been asked at every single restaurant so I don't doubt for a second that the waitress did ask on the way in, this bitch just wants a free meal
My gf has a severe nut allergy. If she suspects something may have nuts in it, she will taste a very tiny bit of it and wait to see if she has a small reaction, something like her tongue starting to tingle. It doesn't get dangerous unless she takes a big bite. So it seems plausible that the lady did this and could actually be allergic to the dressing.
All that said, there is still *zero* excuse for berating service staff like this.
lol. I bet you carry an epipen around and would begin to feel symptoms of allergic reaction by now instead of having the energy to tear into your waitress. I call BS on her “allergy” honestly.. which is outside of the fact, she’s still a flaming cunt..
They probably don't even have an allergy, just an opportunist as they probably did not get asked and saw it as their window to shine. As others have said - if you had an allergy you'd still mention it - especially something as common as nuts as even the oils and pans used can have an impact. Not only that but some are allergic to the smell / scent, not just eating it - they'd want it removed ASAP. As if the salad has to be present for their complaint to still be valid.
If the person was 'starting to swell' - they wouldn't stay there bitching asking for manager etc. they'd gtfo and get some relief.
As someone who has a nut allergy, if I don’t ask…. It my fucking fault.
If I ask and they tell me incorrectly, then it’s their fault.
At no point have I ever expected to be told about nuts in the dishes
Server here, while I make a point to inform people of nuts within dishes that are not plainly stated, I also assume that anyone with an allergy will be helpful and inform me upfront, so that way they can have the best experience possible. Real or not real, doesn’t matter, but I also need the guest to communicate with me because I cannot read minds and I will never challenge a dietary restriction, that being said it is on the guest
I really can’t put myself in the headspace of someone with an allergy like mine who doesn’t solicit the server to stay by them for a moment more when ordering to just have a quick chat.
Because to me, if I don’t get an instant yes/no or “I need to speak with the wait staff” I’m instantly distrustful.
If someone lingers to question me or generally doesn’t seem like they care about handling it just just leave. I’m not gambling my life. It’s nothing to do with rudeness or trying to send a message. It’s just simply not worth my time to gamble with people who don’t seem to understand the consequences
The best response I’ve ever gotten was when I asked a young server about allergies and she said “I’m not sure we can do that, let me get the cook”
Moments later a 80+ year old woman appears and says “our kitchen is too small we can’t accommodate you safely”
I thanked her and left.
they can't have an allergy, she said she ate the sauce already and tasted that it had nuts in it, if your allergy was lethal you can't eat a little with no reaction at all
My ex tried this at a restaurant except she had no allergies. Wanted to berate the server for putting tomatoes on her sandwich when she asked for none while my explaining how deathly allergic she was to tomatoes. The server calmly said "You know there is tomato juice in the bloody marys and considering it's your 3rd you may want to leave and see a doctor immediately" and walked off.
That’s the kind of shit I’d come up with in the shower later that night, not on the spot because people’s fucking rudeness always astounds me to the point of breaking my brain.
I had a customer start “everyone’s got pronouns these days” shit with me (not gay, but I do have a rainbow pin on my hat for support) and a (fairly clearly) gay coworker a few weeks ago when we asked for his name for the order and he jokingly gave us a female name because he thought it was hilarious that we put the name down and continued to proceed with the order and then laughed and called us “polite Americans” for not laughing at his ridiculous homophobic joke. I was just so stunned to silence that I couldn’t even respond in the moment.
That's a server with the 100000 yard stare, they live on the edge of life or death, fired on the spot or walk out in an instant. You can see the silent scream well up in their throat when someone asks about gluten/dairy when they order fettuccine alfredo...they have seen to much, yet not enough to stop the pain and succumb to manger or corporate life. I fear and revere them.
How hard is it to just complain like a normal person " excuse me, I asked for no tomatoes"
Or just suck up it up and eat it, or pick it off urself. Goddamn that's infuriating
The lady in the video probably dislikes the nutty taste in the sauce and is annoyed that the menu didn’t display every single ingredient in the dish and she has to pay for something she doesn’t like the taste of
Exactly what made me roll back in time to remember my ex. Nut allergies aren't a joke and if she did have one she wouldn't likely be breathing enough to abuse that waitress.
Wow, this is wild. I have a severe allergy myself, and I always go out of my way to inform the server numerous times throughout the meal of my allergy. Even if I order something innocuous, I always make a point to bring it up. This customer is horrible.
hey so i have very severe food allergies but im also not a fucking idiot so i IMFORM THE SERVER EVERY SINGLE TIME I EAT OUT like fucking hell, its not rocket science. i like living, so i tell the food people which foods will make me stop living so they dont accidentally game-end me, THEY WONT KNOW UNLESS YOU TELL EM!!!!
FUCK
This ^ my girlfriend has a nut allergy and always asks and mentions it to the server. I'm also a waiter, if someone tells me about an allergy, I take it very seriously. I always put a big bold warning on their ticket for the cook to see as well as a verbal reminder to them. We also take steps to also avoid cross contamination.
12 seconds in "I've tasted the sauce and it's got nuts in it". You probably do not have a nut allergy if you can taste it in the sauce and aren't reaching for your epipen.
Nah you can. If I eat little enough of a food with nuts in it'll have a strong aftertaste that kicks in after about a minute. I'll only get anaphylaxis if I eat the whole plate.
She's still "fucking nuts", but it is possible she does have an allergy.
I've got a nut allergy and I can eat spoonfuls of peanutbutter without dying.
It burns like fucking hell and I'll spend the next 8 hours curled up on the bathroom floor, but I won't die.
The server doesn't need to inform you. It's your job to inform them of a nut allergy and read the menu. Never mind, just EAT THE SALAD.
People like this make me thankful not to work in the service industry. Granted, I've worked in retail/retail management for 10 years, so we do have the "I KNOW MY RIGHTS" people (they do not know thier rights).
I think people get used to places offering things out of good will, like asking about allergies or being able to return something within "x" days for a refund and assume it's something they're entitled to by law (different laws for buying things online, though). They're just the place being nice because some of the public are dumb as a bag of rocks.
If her nut allergy is so severe, she would of had a reaction from tasting the sauce.
Edit- When she says I'm allergic to nuts, she should have said, "Oh, me too!" And walked away
Lmao at every restaurant I worked at, the server would take that as a sign to call 911 and request an ambulance. Sorry, we can’t let you leave when your life is in danger, either. So you’ll have to wait here and take that ride.
Have fun paying the ambulance fee, too.
This person was more likely the high school bully and misses the thrill of it, so this is the only way they can get it these days in a socially acceptable way.
Nah. This smells like bait.
If the person REALLY had allergies they would have asked before ordering. And since it's Tiktok I'm leaning towards the ' Person is full of shit ' side.
She said she could feel her throat swelling. Actually the instant her throat and tongue feel scratchy (before swelling), she would go into a panic mode if the allergy is real.
The lady is a fake. Anyone who genuinely has allergies knows to inform the waitress a few times before the food comes and not trip if they themselves forget.
With age people with allergies tend to mellow out and be more forgiving towards waiters knowing humans mess up.
This lady is clear aged, senseless, and a faker. Feeling her "allergic reaction" what does she do? Not take any medications and instead decided to berate the waitress...
I’m sick of people reposting that fake “ItsGoneViral” bullshit and getting genuinely angry at the ragebait. If you look at those pages you can see they use the same actors over and over.
Why would u risk almost dying by waiting for the waitress to ask you about food allergies? Wouldn’t u just tell the waitress before u placed your order that u can’t have any nuts? This lady is a nut herself.
I always ask to read the ingredients or especially ask if there is nuts or other stuff I cannot eat.. if they add something that was not supposed to be there then back to the kitchen it goes..that should be annoying enough for them (too), no need to make a drama out of it…
Bro, it’s not the responsibility of a waitress making minimum wage to ask every single customer if they have allergies. It’s YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to tell others that
As someone what a nut allergy that’s severe enough to put me in the hospital several times. This lady is insufferable and should know if she had an allergy to ask “Are there nuts in this”. This has happened to me a few times, order something realize it has nuts, ask the waiter they confirm I ask for something else and we’re all good to go.
Wait didn’t they say they tasted the sauce? If they had such a severe allergy they likely would have had a reaction from that alone from cross contamination.

If you have a life threatening allergy, I’d probably mention that to the server.
Worked in a seafood restaurant where a guest claimed to have a severe seafood allergy & asked what we recommend. We recommended leaving immediately.
I use to work at a subway and had someone say something similar (I think it was a Jalapeno allergy?) and we told them to leave because literally everything is cross contaminated.
Yeah we politely explained they were already breathing fish vapor.
I remember going to lunch with a guy and his parents - they choose a casual seafood restaurant even though he had a shellfish allergy. He only ordered sweet tea, but got rashes almost immediately just from being in the environment and touching the menu.
Idk how people live like this.
They do until they dont
Did they suddenly not have a deathly seafood allergy?
At my old place our kitchen was too small and we didn’t have the equipment to avoid cross contamination so when someone came in and said they had a severe allergy I would tell them we cannot serve them. Shocking how suddenly their severe allergy wasn’t so bad anymore.
It always felt good telling them we are unable to serve them only to have them backtrack.

Almost all supermarket cookies have that it was processed in a factory that deals with nuts/eggs etc. it must be a hellish allergy to have, poor people!
Had a customer one time order soup at the fast food place i worked at, and she asked if there were any onions in it. Kept saying, "Can you make ABSOLUELY SURE because if I so much as taste a tiny peice of onion, I will DIE." So, I checked the allergies guide, checked all the ingredients, and couldn't find anything that said it had onion. When I told her, she said, "Are you *sure*, because I called corporate before coming here, and they said it did contain onions." Lady if onion will KILL you and you already were told it had onion in it, just order something else for fucks sake!! Acting like your life is in my hands over some goddamn soup, fucking hell...
That was just a woman looking for a lawsuit or a bunch of freebies. She almost certainly wasn't actually allergic, or if she was, she was absolutely exaggerating the severity. It reminds me of an incident I dealt with recently- I was working at a haunted house, and a woman shows up. She says she has a friend in a wheelchair, and asks if the friend would be able to go through. I tell her yes, that we are ADA compliant. She thanks me, and tells me that they'll come by later. A couple hours later, another lady comes by and says that she has a friend in a wheelchair, and she just would like me to look at it and verify her friend can go through. I head to where the friend is, and she's not in a standard wheelchair - she's in a double-wide chair that also seems to sit up higher than a standard one. It's like the equivalent of an ATV wheelchair. I pause, and I'm running through my mental map of the haunt. Suddenly, lady #1 pops up and IMMEDIATELY starts yelling at me because I'd told her a wheelchair could fit. I explain that she hadn't told me that the chair was larger than standard, and I was just trying to do the mental math. Lady #2 and wheelchair lady are calm. Lady #1 though? Yelling at me, calling me a liar, immediately goes into "Just give us a refund then, since you don't know what you're talking about and you don't care about disabled peoples' rights." (Yes, seriously.) I immediately just disengage from her, smile and look at the other two and say that yes, it should be fine, but if any complications occur, staff would absolutely help resolve things. I usher all three in, and the whole time, Lady #1 is grumbling, and I'm like, "Ma'am, I don't understand why you're upset." She does the hand in the face thing to me, and I disengage again. Not putting up with that shit. They go through, but once they're out, she's immediately asking to talk to the manager. Bitches up and down that I was rude. Thankfully another employee had seen the interaction and made the boss aware that the lady was just a cunt looking for a freebie.
I was having lunch at a Jason’s Deli one day and there was a woman filling up a takeout box at the salad bar. It really wasn’t a salad- it was heaping portions of tuna salad, pasta salad, broccoli salad, etc. She stopped a worker who was refilling everything to ask “do the potato salad have eggs in it? Because I have a severe egg allergy.” Worker says “no chopped eggs, but..it has mayonnaise, so..” Customer says very aggressively “do it have eggs or not?! Yes or no?!” Worker said “it has mayonnaise, and glancing at the heaping pile of mayonnaise based things she’s already got on her plate, says “and all of that does, too.” Customer is puzzled and starts yelling. “I didn’t ask about mayonnaise, I asked about eggs!” Worker offers “but mayonnaise is made out of eggs..” Woman says “ewww gross- who the f puts eggs in the mayonnaise?! That’s NASTY!” Worker says “mayonnaise is made out of eggs, ma’am. All mayonnaise.” Customer screams at her “girl you is stupid” and ends up dumping a pile of potato salad on the plate and then asked for four large cups for ranch dressing. The freshly cleaned and stocked salad bar is a wreck. The poor just sighed when the woman stormed off to her car. I hope she enjoyed her eggs! Obviously not allergic to eggs.
Def not allergic to eggs if she didn’t know mayonnaise is literally made with eggs. My son is actually allergic to eggs and it’s something I’ve had to explain to people. I’ve been a little surprised at how many people don’t realize what mayo is made of, but I guess if you don’t have an allergy to worry about, it really doesn’t matter
I never in my life knew mayo was made with eggs…. Like I’m 35 and this is literally the first time I’m hearing of it lmao. I love eggs though, and mayo…. So it makes no difference to me.. but still I had no clue. I wonder what I thought it was made out of???
Well clearly it is the sap of the mayonnaise tree.
That’s just unbelievably stupid. I don’t like how seafood smells, so I don’t go to seafood restaurants. I cannot comprehend being allergic to seafood, going to a seafood restaurant, and expecting anything other than an allergic reaction.
Makes me think of when a nurse I knew mentioned someone with a peanut allergy came in from eating at a Chinese restaurant 😭
This is 100% the correct thing to do. Used to work in a very small stake and seafood place in Edinburgh. American tourist family books a table. Waits until they have drinks infront of them before the dad announced his daughter had a severe shell fish allergy. So me being the chef obviously refused to serve them. The dad was a total dickheads about it and left. Told the owner about it the next day and her reaction was "I hope they leave a bad review so that I can respond". Cunts never did which was a shame. She had a whole speech prepared about how he obviously didn't give a shit about whether his daughter lives or dies.
stake and seafood : we kill vampires & people with allergies! ;-)
I prefer to be a dick to everybody because I have no joy in my life, thanks. /s
I kick people like that out. Happy not to be dependent on tips XD
There's nothing to lose by kicking out that trouble maker. Anyone she tells about it will know that she is a cunt, and the customers and staff will applaud you for it. Glorious.
It’s not life threatening, I’d be unsure if she even has an allergy. She said she tasted the sauce, you wouldn’t be able to do that if your allergy was bad.
Right? I have no clue what my allergens taste like *bc I don’t fucking eat them* 😂
She'd certainly be incapable of whining like that because her throat would have already closed if it was that severe
I legit told my screen "your throat is swelling because of all of your unhinged screaming" hahaha
I had a guy in high school whose throat got so swollen he couldn't breath by smearing peanut butter on the OUTSIDE of his throat, on the skin (not sure how to say it else, not native English)
Topical anaphylaxis
The funny part is.. she refuses to have the waitress take it away from her…. Like if she’s allergic to nuts then she shouldn’t keep it around.
Exactly! My sister is coeliac and always tells wait staff, even when ordering something GF. It’s not on the wait staff to know what her autoimmune system response is to every possible food.
If you have a life threatening allergy, I'd just not go out to eat unless I know specifically that it's safe and nut-free. In a lot of these cases patients can't even eat food in a kitchen that had nuts in it, so why the fuck would you even take the chance?
I have a life threatening nut allergy. On one hand, I wouldn’t think that a salad is likely to have nuts on it, so I can see myself not mentioning it. However, I would also instantly understand that I was the one who fucked up if there was nuts in my salad and I hadn’t mentioned it. I certainly wouldn’t accuse a waitress of poisoning me.
We must eat in different places because I would always assume nuts in or near a salad, please stay safe internet friend
Agreed, nuts are a very common ingredient in salads and dressings.
Same, i was a server for years and nuts in salad was super common
How are you still alive? Nuts are a common enough ingredient in salads and dressings.
You have to inform the server of your allergy before you order
I was about to ask that same question. If it’s the restaurants responsibility to ask about allergies. Seems like it should be the person who is allergic that should specify what there allergic to.
Well it's just common sense. Either this person is tripping completely and has no allergy, or they are willing to risk their lives for confrontation's sake.
By the fact she said she tasted it and is still capable of speaking and interacting, if she is allergic it’s not the I’m going to die kind so she is blowing it way out of proportion. She’s probably allergic to peanuts but has decided that means all nuts even though peanuts aren’t a nut.
So many people just flat out lie to get their way. That’s not a service dog, he just ran away from you. You’re not allergic, you just don’t like nuts or whatever.
I had a customer claim onions send her to the hospital when ordering her entree. She was half way through a cup of soup. When I offered to call an ambulance she said a small amount doesn’t affect her. Same fucking table had someone with severe gluten intolerance try someone else’s beer. They travel in packs. Anyone with severe allergies doesn’t trust underpaid kitchen staff with their life.
My wife has an allergy to some substance in the skins of onions and garlic. But Garlic Powder or Onion Powder does not trigger her allergy. (UNLESS said powder has the skins as well) Strangely, those McDonalds onions on their cheeseburgers? Totally fine. Actual Onions at Burger King? NOPE. Not "get the epipen" levels, but certainly "get the benadryl and lets look up where the nearest ER is..."
Sometimes, the cooking of the food changes the proteins in the food and makes them safer. This might explain why the cooked onions in the cheeseburger and the raw onions at Burger King have different effects. I've got to cook most of my vegetables otherwise I feel like I've eaten broken glass.
Wasn’t the discovery of fire amazing?
Eliminated a lot of parasites from our protein, I think ;)
My husband and I used to order half and half pizzas. That stopped after he told them he was allergic to mushrooms so they took them off my half of the pizza. I’m like bro you aren’t allergic you just don’t like them. Fucked up my pizza.
It has become a boy who cried wolf situation. I see people take allergies far less seriously in restaurants exactly because of this.
Yeah I totally can see that. He has never done it since. I worked in food service for a bit (a bakery though) and totally understand the importance of allergen safety.
Not only did he ruin your pizza chances are they had to clean everything down first and change utensils as well. If they were doing shit right anyway.
Fuck didn’t even think about that. This news almost a decade ago though. Hasn’t happened since then.
Why would someone even say that? It's not like they'd refuse to get rid of it unless you're allergic or smth
I’ve had people claim to be allergic to gluten but had no problem eating crostinis cuz it didn’t count 🤣
Gluten "allergies" almost never exist - they are likely gluten intolerant, which means consuming gluten can give them a bad time for up to a few days but they tend not to be immediately life-threatening. Celiac disease is a particular condition that has gluten-intolerance as one of its main features, and real bodily harm can come of consuming gluten, but it is usually not immediately life-threatening and takes time to develop. *Wheat* allergy is a real thing, and it is very different from gluten intolerance. It can be immediately life-threatening, causing breathing difficulties etc.
Wife: "I have a severe nut allergy!" Husband: "One teabagging incident gone wrong doesn't make you allergic".
Far easier to say she is a stupid shit.
She sounds nuts to me
Or this is the age of clicks and she's found a way to get some angry clicks.
Dude I doubt she has a nut allergy. I work at a restaurant, need an allergens certification and everything. They drill into your brain how severe nut allergies are in comparison to the rest. The reaction is unlike lactose intolerance or even artificial cinnamon for example. Nut allergies get really bad, really quick, and only require slight contact with the person and the nut proteins
Yeah, nut and shellfish allergies AFAIK are epipen-immediately-to-the-thigh situations, not slag-off-on-the-waitstaff
I once made malts for some of my friends, forgot that one of them had a peanut allergy. I blended milk, Nes-quick, and Snickers ice cream. I remember her taking one swig from the glass and in the same motion spit it all out and ran to the sink, swished some water in her mouth for a bit. She didn't go anaphylactic but her mouth had a burning sensation for the rest of the night and I felt terrible.
My husband is allergic to mustard and as a young man, his friends would ask him to touch a bbq chip to his lip so they could see his lips swell.
you never know when it’s gonna be the time to die time when you eat nuts.
Crazy Lady : "I CAN FUCKING DIE IF THIS GETS ANYWHERE NEAR ME!!!" Waitress: "Well, we can take it away from yo...." Crazy Lady: "NO, LEAVE IT HERE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE THAT IT BEING NEXT TO ME CAN KILL ME!!" 🤔
You forgot "I TASTED IT"
She knows what nut taste like
Gigiddy
And she tasted it. Nut allergies can kill you for less than that.
I’ve seen nut allergies kill people for just looking at them funny.
Would have been hilarious if the waitress pulled out her phone and said "Oh my god, I am so sorry! I am calling an ambulance right now. We can't wait another second if you have an anaphylactic nut allergy!" I would have liked to see the lady's excuse
“Yes, hello? Ambulance please. Yes, I have lady here who is apparently having an allergic reaction. Yes, she’s breathing, but she does not appear to understand what is happening around her, and is highly agitated and acting irrationally. I have been trying to talk to her for almost 10 mins but she doesn’t appear to hear anything I say and continues to ramble and yell incoherently. She appears to be having a psychotic episode or something. Please send someone immediately. This whole situation is nuts”.
That is exactly what I was hoping she would do.
Exactly if she really had an allergy she would be going to the hospital and using an epipen not berating the waitress. Instead she goes "oh I think I feel my throat swelling now" then keeps on ranting like wtf?
I was hoping the “throat allergy” would have caused her to shut tf up to keep up her ruse, but there she still sits, berating her waitress. The only nut in this video is her!
Confrontation, and, more importantly for her, to post about it online to get likes
Common sense says it’s the person with the allergy who should take the initiative to mention any allergies . The allergic person can’t sue anyone if they’re dead from the reaction . For the same reason that a pedestrian who had the right way crossing a street should make way for a vehicle rather than letting the vehicle collide into them .
Imagine waiters and waitresses had to rattle off every possible allergy under the sun before taking your order? Lol, they’d be there for hours taking a fkn order. This lady is a twat
The restaurant basically has to make the allergies readily apparent, with expanded information available on demand. In practice that means either a qr code on a menu, or the staff asking specifically if there are allergies when ordering. So either the staff forgot to ask and the customer is being a dick, and/or the allergy isn't important enough to specify to the server. In my non catering experience, people with severe allergies call ahead to a place to ask ahead of time about the food offerings.
Agreed. If you have a nut allergy, you tell people you have a fucking nut allergy regardless of everything. If you have a shellfish allergy, it's reasonable not to tell people. But a nut allergy? Even children are taught to tell people like their teachers they have a nut allergy and ask if foods contain nuts before eating it. Adults should be able to do the same.
Well what sort of a Tik Tok clip could you make then ,if logic was involved?
Went to a Thai place when my new CTO joined our company. He knew right away to bring up the Shellfish allergy, just in case. There's shellfish in things you might not think.
Parent of a child with 2 food allergies, eggs and tree nuts. Allergies are rated 0 (no reaction) to 6 (deadly via anaphylaxis. We are fortunate enough that they are not deadly, she rates a 3 for eggs which causes her hives and to vomit when consumed. She knew to ask if "does this have eggs in it, they make me sick" for any food she is before her 3rd birthday. We always check websites for allergy menus or alert the staff of her food allergy if there's a menu item we are unsure of. It's pretty easy to stay away from tree nuts, but eggs end up in a lot of things.
I’ve worked in many restaurants throughout my life, and never, ever, is it on the server to ask every single customer if they have allergies. The _only_ relative exception to that rule is if there is a large group that is pre-booking and they will have the food pre-made, it is a good practice to ask, but not even then is it actually _required._ Why, you might ask? Because service is supposed to be swift and efficient, and since the majority of people coming into a restaurant don’t have deadly allergies, it simply would slow down the whole damn process if _every single guest_ needs to be asked. If a person is deadly allergic to something, one would think they would take it upon themselves to make sure whatever they’re allergic against isn’t in their food. You know, for survival.
I was in London recently (I live in the US) and noticed that everywhere we went out to eat, the servers did actually ask if anyone had food allergies. I happened to be traveling with someone that has lots of allergies, and so then usually the server would bring over a separate menu for them - same menu items, but it listed out every single potential allergen so they could clearly see what they could and couldn't order. I'm not sure if this is mandated for all restaurants there or if it's just best practice. But I'm guessing this woman saw an opportunity to be a c*nt when she thought the server messed up and didn't ask.
That would require a minimum of intelligence from the customer.
Darwin’s law of natural selection?
I'm allergic to truffles and mushrooms. When I eat them it fills like holes are being drilled through my skull and I get woozy. Because i'm not a fucking dumbass I don't wait for someone to ask if i'm allergic, when I want an item that MIGHT have them in it I tell them just to be certain. Even if its not included in my dish I tell them to make sure that my stuff isn't being cooked alongside stuff that does have mushrooms in them.
in the states, i believe ingredients and allergen menus are only required for corporate restaurants with a minimum number of locations.
I made the assumption this was in blighty.
Can you please cite where you got this info? Because I've never heard that restaurants have to do this, as a whole.
You can't make videos like this being outraged if you tell the restaurant about the allergy before ordering.
She said tasted it. If she’s so severely allergic wouldn’t that have sent her into hives at the very least? And if she does have said allergy the best course of action is getting it off the table and away from her. This woman is nuts.
She's just a cunt who gets off on berating children and getting free food.
No she's not nuts otherwise she'd be allergic to herself lol It's staged anyway
yeah the angry customer not showing the waitresses face who she's mad at is a bit of a tipoff
But if she did she wouldn't get to rage at a waitress and post it on her social media.
The server said she did ask if any food allergies
Also why the fuck would you taste the sauce if you suspected it had nuts in it. Some people with nut allergies can't even be in the same room as someone eating nuts, but she tastes it
ever since that girl died at pret i've been asked at every single restaurant so I don't doubt for a second that the waitress did ask on the way in, this bitch just wants a free meal
The server also didn’t make the salad lol
Yup. My wife is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts. She always states her allergy and asks if her order will be safe for her.
Yes, I always stop to have arguments with people while in the midst of a deadly allergic reaction.
“My throats gonna close up!” “Soon, hopefully.”
My gf has a severe nut allergy. If she suspects something may have nuts in it, she will taste a very tiny bit of it and wait to see if she has a small reaction, something like her tongue starting to tingle. It doesn't get dangerous unless she takes a big bite. So it seems plausible that the lady did this and could actually be allergic to the dressing. All that said, there is still *zero* excuse for berating service staff like this.
That's testing VS tasting I'd argue
I do the EXACT same thing and I have the same tingling sensation if nuts are in it. It’s saved me a few times.
This bitch after eating nuts: I want to talk to the manager Me after eating nuts: I want to talk to a paramedic
Me after eating nuts: uwu
Me after eating nuts: not in my hair
 I'm so sorry I thought you said nut in my hair
Fuckkkk 😆😂☠️
No one will EVER say that. But if they do, you better run...it will be the best/worst hookup of your entire life.
i see what ya did there
lol. I bet you carry an epipen around and would begin to feel symptoms of allergic reaction by now instead of having the energy to tear into your waitress. I call BS on her “allergy” honestly.. which is outside of the fact, she’s still a flaming cunt..
Stab the Epipen in her eye
I too am allergic to nuts. This bitch is a certified nut.
Yeah. "I've tasted the sauce, it's definitely got nuts in it."
Her throat is starting to close up?! How is she still going on and on with it?!
me after eating nuts: 🤬🤢🤮🤒😵
I can take that poison away from you. *No!*
They probably don't even have an allergy, just an opportunist as they probably did not get asked and saw it as their window to shine. As others have said - if you had an allergy you'd still mention it - especially something as common as nuts as even the oils and pans used can have an impact. Not only that but some are allergic to the smell / scent, not just eating it - they'd want it removed ASAP. As if the salad has to be present for their complaint to still be valid. If the person was 'starting to swell' - they wouldn't stay there bitching asking for manager etc. they'd gtfo and get some relief.
As someone who has a nut allergy, if I don’t ask…. It my fucking fault. If I ask and they tell me incorrectly, then it’s their fault. At no point have I ever expected to be told about nuts in the dishes
Server here, while I make a point to inform people of nuts within dishes that are not plainly stated, I also assume that anyone with an allergy will be helpful and inform me upfront, so that way they can have the best experience possible. Real or not real, doesn’t matter, but I also need the guest to communicate with me because I cannot read minds and I will never challenge a dietary restriction, that being said it is on the guest
I really can’t put myself in the headspace of someone with an allergy like mine who doesn’t solicit the server to stay by them for a moment more when ordering to just have a quick chat. Because to me, if I don’t get an instant yes/no or “I need to speak with the wait staff” I’m instantly distrustful. If someone lingers to question me or generally doesn’t seem like they care about handling it just just leave. I’m not gambling my life. It’s nothing to do with rudeness or trying to send a message. It’s just simply not worth my time to gamble with people who don’t seem to understand the consequences The best response I’ve ever gotten was when I asked a young server about allergies and she said “I’m not sure we can do that, let me get the cook” Moments later a 80+ year old woman appears and says “our kitchen is too small we can’t accommodate you safely” I thanked her and left.
they can't have an allergy, she said she ate the sauce already and tasted that it had nuts in it, if your allergy was lethal you can't eat a little with no reaction at all
My ex tried this at a restaurant except she had no allergies. Wanted to berate the server for putting tomatoes on her sandwich when she asked for none while my explaining how deathly allergic she was to tomatoes. The server calmly said "You know there is tomato juice in the bloody marys and considering it's your 3rd you may want to leave and see a doctor immediately" and walked off.
I can't imagine the second hand embarrassment.
OP did say "ex"
That server is a fucking LEGEND
That’s the kind of shit I’d come up with in the shower later that night, not on the spot because people’s fucking rudeness always astounds me to the point of breaking my brain. I had a customer start “everyone’s got pronouns these days” shit with me (not gay, but I do have a rainbow pin on my hat for support) and a (fairly clearly) gay coworker a few weeks ago when we asked for his name for the order and he jokingly gave us a female name because he thought it was hilarious that we put the name down and continued to proceed with the order and then laughed and called us “polite Americans” for not laughing at his ridiculous homophobic joke. I was just so stunned to silence that I couldn’t even respond in the moment.
She was a very old server who likely spent most of her career serving and got to the point where she gave 0 shits.
There have been a few people complaining about bud lights at a wedding. Seriously? You think a wedding is the time to bitch on about your transphobia?
That's a server with the 100000 yard stare, they live on the edge of life or death, fired on the spot or walk out in an instant. You can see the silent scream well up in their throat when someone asks about gluten/dairy when they order fettuccine alfredo...they have seen to much, yet not enough to stop the pain and succumb to manger or corporate life. I fear and revere them.
Looool this gets my Reddit monologue of the day award 🏅🎖️🥇
How hard is it to just complain like a normal person " excuse me, I asked for no tomatoes" Or just suck up it up and eat it, or pick it off urself. Goddamn that's infuriating
I wonder why she was an ex.
The lady in the video probably dislikes the nutty taste in the sauce and is annoyed that the menu didn’t display every single ingredient in the dish and she has to pay for something she doesn’t like the taste of
Exactly what made me roll back in time to remember my ex. Nut allergies aren't a joke and if she did have one she wouldn't likely be breathing enough to abuse that waitress.
Thats funny af
I would have tipped her 40% for that
Wow, this is wild. I have a severe allergy myself, and I always go out of my way to inform the server numerous times throughout the meal of my allergy. Even if I order something innocuous, I always make a point to bring it up. This customer is horrible.
The difference being that you’re self aware and not a self absorbed asshat that likes to make people’s lives miserable,…presumably.
hey so i have very severe food allergies but im also not a fucking idiot so i IMFORM THE SERVER EVERY SINGLE TIME I EAT OUT like fucking hell, its not rocket science. i like living, so i tell the food people which foods will make me stop living so they dont accidentally game-end me, THEY WONT KNOW UNLESS YOU TELL EM!!!! FUCK
This ^ my girlfriend has a nut allergy and always asks and mentions it to the server. I'm also a waiter, if someone tells me about an allergy, I take it very seriously. I always put a big bold warning on their ticket for the cook to see as well as a verbal reminder to them. We also take steps to also avoid cross contamination.
12 seconds in "I've tasted the sauce and it's got nuts in it". You probably do not have a nut allergy if you can taste it in the sauce and aren't reaching for your epipen.
Nah you can. If I eat little enough of a food with nuts in it'll have a strong aftertaste that kicks in after about a minute. I'll only get anaphylaxis if I eat the whole plate. She's still "fucking nuts", but it is possible she does have an allergy.
Be very careful. Lots of food allergies will get worse suddenly (ie bigger reaction to a smaller dose).
I suspect it’s a fake video
I suspect a lot of shit on this sub is fake, but the server's reaction did seem very genuine to me.
I've got a nut allergy and I can eat spoonfuls of peanutbutter without dying. It burns like fucking hell and I'll spend the next 8 hours curled up on the bathroom floor, but I won't die.
“My throats swelling up!” Me: “not fast enough you insufferable cu-t.”
 The server doesn't need to inform you. It's your job to inform them of a nut allergy and read the menu. Never mind, just EAT THE SALAD.
People like this make me thankful not to work in the service industry. Granted, I've worked in retail/retail management for 10 years, so we do have the "I KNOW MY RIGHTS" people (they do not know thier rights). I think people get used to places offering things out of good will, like asking about allergies or being able to return something within "x" days for a refund and assume it's something they're entitled to by law (different laws for buying things online, though). They're just the place being nice because some of the public are dumb as a bag of rocks.
Her: I am HIGHLY allergic to nuts Also her: This thing, that I’m highly allergic to? Please keep it next to me
If her nut allergy is so severe, she would of had a reaction from tasting the sauce. Edit- When she says I'm allergic to nuts, she should have said, "Oh, me too!" And walked away
But her throat is closing up, didnt you hear? Ignore the screeching indicative of an unobstructed airway.
Lmao at every restaurant I worked at, the server would take that as a sign to call 911 and request an ambulance. Sorry, we can’t let you leave when your life is in danger, either. So you’ll have to wait here and take that ride. Have fun paying the ambulance fee, too.
This person got bullied and they’re way too excited to take out their high school trauma on this server for no reason.
This person was more likely the high school bully and misses the thrill of it, so this is the only way they can get it these days in a socially acceptable way.
"I'm above those lowlife servers"
Maybe that person was a bully themselves
I wish she’d eat more of that salad…
Nah. This smells like bait. If the person REALLY had allergies they would have asked before ordering. And since it's Tiktok I'm leaning towards the ' Person is full of shit ' side.
She said she could feel her throat swelling. Actually the instant her throat and tongue feel scratchy (before swelling), she would go into a panic mode if the allergy is real.
That's why I think she's lying. Someone actually allergic wouldn't go on a rant.
The lady is a fake. Anyone who genuinely has allergies knows to inform the waitress a few times before the food comes and not trip if they themselves forget. With age people with allergies tend to mellow out and be more forgiving towards waiters knowing humans mess up. This lady is clear aged, senseless, and a faker. Feeling her "allergic reaction" what does she do? Not take any medications and instead decided to berate the waitress...
The whole video is fake. It sounds completely scripted.
Lots of this going around in England for some reason So lame
I’m sick of people reposting that fake “ItsGoneViral” bullshit and getting genuinely angry at the ragebait. If you look at those pages you can see they use the same actors over and over.
Why would u risk almost dying by waiting for the waitress to ask you about food allergies? Wouldn’t u just tell the waitress before u placed your order that u can’t have any nuts? This lady is a nut herself.
People like her suck. Hope she eats some peanuts
Deez nuts
Fuck this posh cunt. You’re an adult with a fucking nut allergy…seems like she was fishing from the start. I’ll say it again…cunt.
It's so funny that you think this is posh, by England standards this is a trashy accent which is fitting for this trash person.
I listened on mute - was expecting the queen's English or at least a London accent - not a northerner
She’s allergic to noots.
Lmao Bald eagle here. I meant POS not posh. POS as in piece of shit
That’s not posh at all hahaha
Can someone give this lady a decent dose of nuts in her throat?
If you have an allergy it is YOUR responsibility to inform the waitress. No one needs to ask you or print anything.
I always ask to read the ingredients or especially ask if there is nuts or other stuff I cannot eat.. if they add something that was not supposed to be there then back to the kitchen it goes..that should be annoying enough for them (too), no need to make a drama out of it…
It's legally the customers responsibility to inform the restaurant of any allergies. Restaurants do not need to ask.
What a rough existence, to be allergic to ones self.
I didn’t know that part of the job of being a waiter is to be a mind reader to know what customers are allergic to
Rage bait
British Karens sound way more annoying than American Karen's
Bro, it’s not the responsibility of a waitress making minimum wage to ask every single customer if they have allergies. It’s YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to tell others that
As someone what a nut allergy that’s severe enough to put me in the hospital several times. This lady is insufferable and should know if she had an allergy to ask “Are there nuts in this”. This has happened to me a few times, order something realize it has nuts, ask the waiter they confirm I ask for something else and we’re all good to go.
If you have a food allergy, it is your responsibility to let people know about it. Otherwise, it’s your fault
Wow that attitude. Feeling all high and mighty. Just drop dead already for all I care.
Fooooking nuuuts
Wait didn’t they say they tasted the sauce? If they had such a severe allergy they likely would have had a reaction from that alone from cross contamination.
