Are your events peanut-free? Some of them?
In my group, they were only peanut-free (or vegetarian, allergen-free, etc) if group member was hosting an event in her home.
No... I wouldn't think they would need to be unless a child had an allergy. In that case, it is up to the mother of that child to let everyone know. We have a child with an egg allergy in our group and we are always accommodating to her diet.
No because no one ever mentioned having an allergy. If they did, all would be peanut free.
Our events are always "bring-your-own" or "pot-luck" and we generally have a policy of not sharing with our little friends, unless we get an okay from the mom. (Or we know from precedent that a certain snack is okay.) No one has ever mentioned a peanut allergy, so we've never done that. We've accommodated other issues before, though, so if it came up, I'd imagine we'd go peanut-free if we needed to; it's just never come up.
No, we don't have that as a mandated rule, though I don't know of anyone who has ever requested it. In general, people don't usually bring nut products to our potlucks, but they certainly are allowed to if they wanted.
I think if someone needed an event to be peanut free, the moms in my group would be happy to accommodate. My son actually has a lot of allergies and my friends have been awesome about providing snacks he can eat whenever we have parties.
As a general rule, no. But women are pretty good if you tell them.
Our Meet Up group does not specifically hold peanut free events. If the event is held at someone's home or someone is offering snacks, then the host will ask if there are any allergies and accommodate them, but more often we just bring our own kid's food, like for a zoo visit. However, if kids are allergic to peanuts, it has not been mentioned to me at the events I've attended. So maybe they don't attend those events or we don't have any such allergies. The dairy/gluten/etc. allergies are accommodated by the parent that brings them, mostly.
Are group is peanut free. There are 3 or 4 kids in our group that are allergic so everyone has no problems with keeping it that way. We also have a few glutine free too. So a few moms will bring those dishes labeled. As a group I feel like we all help each other out and still make the kids that have allergies part of the group. There are about 20 moms in my group.
When I host, I don't put out anything with nuts just to be safe.
