I'm sorry to say this but they don't understand the significances of your problem.So these type of people u can't make them understand.The only way is if u drop dead from the food intake.Some people aren't real smart about problems like yours.So u need to take a stand and tell them this is where we are going to eat because this is what I like to eat.Stop telling them of your problem or they are just going to keep teasing u. I wish u all the luck and good eatings.

Have you tried steering them in the direction of a restaurant that serves both the spicy delights and the foods you can endure? Sometimes when I don't feel like the killer spice foods, but feel like company, I just have a salad while the others eat and enjoy a late snack after getting home. Best of luck.

I say these people are being selfish. They should care enough to understand that you have got allergies to certain types of foods and should make plans accordingly. I suggest you have dinner before you meet those people and just have a drink while they are eating if you want to be with them. Maybe then they will get the picture and be more considerate next time.

Some one in my family has some of the same problems with certain food, when we knew she was coming for dinner, we always took this into consideration, and cooked foods she could eat. After all, we can eat the way we usually do after she left. I understand where you coming from. I would just flat tell them, you have a right not to have to even try to eat something you do not like. If they can not understand, they do not deserve your visit company.

It's a little insensitve I know. There are restaurants (not many) that I don't particularly care for, but my friends insist on going to. I say eat before hand, order dessert for dinner and enjoy the company.

Wow, they shouldn't be imposing their preferences on you. They should respect your adverse health reactions to spicy food. I, myself love spicy food, but if one of my friends couldn't eat it I wouldn't force her to come with us. I would also make an effort to go to places where she could eat.

Just explain nicely (again) to your friends or relatives that you really can't eat that kind of food because it makes you ill.

Do the people in your life understand that this is not a preference, but a medical condition/allergy? Make sure they realize that you are not simply a picky eater.

Try hard to explain the situation to them. If they dont get it, get a pizza and a DVD.

chinese buffets are awesome
