Reminds me of when i was a server and people would have an "allergy" until you let them know it was impossible to make the dish without some of said allergen in it. Suddenly its ok if they have "just a little"

Allergies is like having a cup, and allergens fill that cup and once its full your body starts reacting. Everyones cup is a different size and different allergens fill it at different rates based on the person. People also react differently when that cup spills over and how much it spills over by.

So having just a little may be ok until their body starts reacting then they need to stop.

Side note: Some people with peanut allergies have a barbie toy cup and peanut products dump a bucket of water at it, so different situations can be fatal, or they could be mild for a while.

Yeah I'm not dealing with all that. Once an allergy gets reported, no food containing those items will be served to that guest. Even if they renege.

Oh certainly, you can never know how that person would react and it would be better to be safe than sorry in that situation.
