If you have food allergies, intolerances or other dietary restrictions, traveling can be difficult when you don't plan ahead. A few simple ideas can make your next trip better.
Research well before you travel
Consult relevant websites
Know exactly what you don't want to eat and find the words in different languages
If possible, do your own cooking
Eat fruit for breakfast
Let airlines and hotels know about your food restrictions in advance
Pack and bring your own snacks

When you’re dining out during your travels, I suggest you call the restaurant to confirm they can accommodate your dietary restrictions, and don’t call during peak hours — you want them to have the time to answer your burning questions: Does the sushi rice contain rice vinegar? Do you cook your vegetables in butter? Are your fries cooked in duck fat? Often, you can also make a note when making a reservation online so the restaurant will have your dietary information on hand when you arrive.

When you arrive at a new restaurant, it's important that you're not shy, but let the waiter know what you cannot eat.
If you plan ahead, you can call the restaurant in advance and give the chef ample time to prepare your meal.
Remember to always bring a copy of your food allergy emergency plan.
Also, program the number to the food allergy hotline into your phone.

Unfortunately, food restrictions also imply travel restrictions. Upon experiencing allergies or intolerances for the first time, many individuals start traveling much less for fear that their condition will worsen and they will risk the possibility of a major issue to happen.

You must also be aware that some countries have restrictions for export and import when it comes to what kind of food you want to bring with you when you travel, so study the regulations well before you leave!

Ask your waiter if you can mix and match different items on the menu to create what works for you. If you look at an entrée description, you’ll see most of the foods that are in a dish. For example, if you see a dish that has roasted vegetables or potatoes, but what you want to order doesn’t have it, you might either sub out something from your meal or kind of create your own using sides and items from different entrées.
