Peach allergy?

[Bethany M]

Hey quick question for the group!
I'm getting ready to make reservations for our trip and I have a sever peach allergy to the point of carrying an epi pen. My question is this, i've been looking at all the food pictures which look amazing, but I didn't see any peaches. Should I mention this when making my reservation?

Even though peaches do not figure prominently in the food at WDW, any allergen severe enough to require an epi pen should be noted.

Yes you should definately mention this!!!!!!!! My ds has a few allergies and Disney dining has been excellent! Also most cs places have ingredient list behind the counter check them to make sure! Also when you get to a ts restaurant remind the person at the potium and your server about the allergy. Have a wonderful allergy free trip!

Yes mention it, and then mention it again whenever you are ordering food on property. Disney does everything that they can to accomodate for these kinds of things.

Absolutely mention it, and mention it when you order. Most likely, you will even get an awesome visit at the table by the restaurant chef who will discuss options with you! Its kind of cool.
For the record though, having eaten in almost every restaurant in WDW over the years, except for specific desserts, I don't think I have seen peach anything anywhere at the restaurants.

Since this is not one of the more common allergies, it might be best to contact Special Diets in advance...

They may work with you since you have a more uncommon allergy. Normally they look for 4 allergies or more, PKU, or a metabolic disorder to provide assitance, but I've seen them help out for singular uncommon allergies as well. So, hopefully they can give you some assistance.

Regardless of the help they can or can't provide, make sure you note your allergy when checking in to each meal and with your server. I too haven't seen a ton of peaches, but you never know. I know some places that handle peach allergies will also ask about almond allergies since they are related. So, that could come up too.

Thanks! I just emailed them! It is a really odd allergy but on the plus side I can still have almonds! Love those things!
