Advice to other teens with food allergies:
“Although it may seem awkward to have a food allergy,
don’t try to ignore it. It is not something you can take a pill for in the morning and ignore the rest of the day. Keep checking ingredients, reading labels, and asking questions; it is for your own good.”
