For my server & the kitchen
I have Alpha Gal Syndrome
It's an allergy to mammal meat and mammal-derived ingredients — usually triggered by a tick bite. Even small amounts can make me sick, so I appreciate your help keeping my plate safe. Thank you!
Please avoid in my food
- Beef, pork, lamb, goat, venison — all mammal meat
- Bacon, sausage, hot dogs, ham, and deli meats
- Meat-based broth, stock, bouillon, or gravy
- Lard, tallow, and animal shortening
- Gelatin (marshmallows, Jell-O, gummies, some yogurts)
Usually safe for me
- Chicken, turkey, duck, and other bird meats
- Fish and shellfish
- Eggs, fruits, vegetables, grains, beans, and nuts
Prep & cross contamination
Please cook my meal in a clean pan with fresh oil, using fresh utensils and a clean grill surface — cross contamination from shared grills, broilers, or fryer oil can cause a reaction. Thank you so much — it means a lot.
