Allergy-Friendly Lawrence University Campus Guide
Lawrence University's dining service staff are all very friendly and willing to work with students on their dietary restrictions and needs! I’ve met with the staff a couple of times and was able to work out the possibility of getting a safe bread for me to make sandwiches in the dining hall! There is a SimplyOasis station free of the top allergens, as well as a gluten-free fridge section that also includes some nut-free/allergy-friendly Enjoy Life products! Their kitchen staff even goes through the FARECheck training.Location: Appleton, Wisconsin

Allergy-Friendly Campus Guide: Loyola Marymount University
Loyola Marymount University
Location: Los Angeles, California To be honest, my experience at the school’s dining hall were not the best. Thankfully things have improved since I left, but I would still make an effort to meet with the head chef upon move in at the 2 main dining halls. The student run coffee shop is amazing though. Nursing staff on campus are wonderful. If you get allergy shots, try to get on the waitlist the second you enroll!

Allergy-Friendly North Carolina State Campus Guide
I’ve been very impressed with the allergy safety and accommodations NC State has for campus. The dining halls have all food items labeled, provide dairy and gluten free products, use an allergy scoops for ice cream, and similar protocols for on campus restaurants. I feel very comfortable eating on campus while having a severe nut allergy.Location: Raleigh, North Carolina

Allergy-Friendly Campus Guide: Northeastern University
Northeastern University
Location: Boston, Massachusetts Northeastern University offers a station at the main dining hall that is free of the top 8 allergens, as well as a dedicated gluten-free toaster, microwave, freezer and bread box. There are definitely options on campus for gluten-free students, however for other allergies it is limited to one section at just one of three dining halls. The Northeastern staff are extremely kind and helpful, though, and when I needed meals delivered to my room for medical needs, they handled everything incredibly well. The chef personally gave me his phone number so I could text him questions about my meals. While the on-campus options aren’t extensive, being in the middle of a large city undoubtedly helps with more options. There are many grocery stores within walking distance and a wide variety of bakeries and restaurants in the city that cater to allergies. The school definitely has options for students with allergies but has room to improve.

Food Allergies in Movies and Television
The Oscars are this weekend and while we love to be surprised by the Best Picture winner, getting surprised by a food allergy scene in a movie, not so much. With food allergies increasingly making guest appearances in movies, TV, and other media, we’re fans of getting a sneak preview, which is why we’ve created the largest resource of 42 movies and TV shows that feature food allergies so you can check before you hit play. Our Food Allergy Movie + TV Guide details which character has the allergy, what they’re allergic to and whether or not there’s a reaction, plus a brief description of the scene. If you have a movie or TV show we can add, please share it here to help us grow this resource!
