So lets be real. Traveling with food allergies is not fun. In fact, its stressful, often times annoying, and usually ends in frustration. Unfortunately, all restaurants do not have their foods labeled, separated and conveniently packaged for people who may be intolerant to a variety of foods. BUT, with a few advanced planning techniques, obstacles…
