It’s National Food Allergy Awareness Week: Don’t Play Food Allergy Roulette At Summer Picnics!

May 10, 2011 - PRLog -- May is National Allergy Awareness Month, with May 8th through May 14th designated as Food Allergy Awareness Week. Summer entertaining season kicks off soon, with families gathering for reunions and holiday celebrations. Who’s minding the buffet table? How can hosts and hostesses make sure they offer great food without making their guests play Food Allergy Roulette? CLEAR Allergy Labels to the rescue!

Allergy Annie™ (http://www.twitter.com/allergyannie) and CLEAR Allergy Labels (http://www.clearallergylabels.com) offer their new Buffet Kit, the first product to provide a way to clearly label the dishes on your party buffet, putting your guests’ minds at ease. No more guessing: “Does this have nuts in it?” “Is there shrimp in this casserole?” “Is this gluten-free?” CLEAR Buffet Kits take the fear out of - and put the fun back in to - parties for anyone with food allergies.

Food allergies are on the rise, particularly in children, where the incidence has doubled in the past decade. Nothing can spoil the fun at a Memorial Day picnic like a 911 call caused by a food allergy attack. Recent studies estimate that 8% of all Americans have food allergies. Add 11% who have been diagnosed with a gluten issue and another 28% who have a food intolerance (not as severe as a food allergy, but which can still have significant after-effects), and it becomes clear why a CLEAR Allergy Labels Buffet Kit is a good idea! CLEAR is all about helping savvy, style-conscious hostesses - and their guests - play it safe for parties and playdates.  

CLEAR Buffet Kits are available in four styles:
•   Girl’s Night In I’m Washing My Hair (funky retro)
•   Playdate: Pattycake & Playdough (cartoon fun)
•   Girls Just Want to Have Fun (fun and functional)
•   Black Tie: Bling It On! (upscale cocktail)
