Food Allergy Industry and Food Service & Hospitality Consulting
I work with various companies to help them better understand the food allergy and special diet consumer. My passion and concerns lay between that gap between product and the food allergy patron. Be it a food manufacturer, a brand, drug company or food service, there are missed financial opportunities and unnecessary risks being taken daily. My goal is to bring this gap through consultations and using tools already available.
Please Note: As always, consult with your physician before you make changes to the management of any health condition. Gratefulfoodie does not endorse any of the businesses or organizations listed and has not received payment to list these resources. My goal is to help you find tools that might make life easier.
