Leading food allergy advocate Lianne Mandelbaum discusses her article, "What one diagnosis can change: the movement to make dining safer." She explains how for millions of people living with food allergies, dining out is often an exercise in survival rather than a joy, filled with anxiety about cross-contact and lack of ingredient transparency. Lianne highlights a powerful advocacy movement, driven by the personal stories of those with lived experience, that is creating systemic change. She focuses on California's ADDE Act (SB 68), a bill that would require restaurants to list the top nine allergens on their menus, framing it not as a burden but as a significant business opportunity. By increasing transparency, restaurants can win the trust and business of the food-allergic community and the large groups of friends and family who dine with them. Drawing parallels between her own advocacy for airline safety and this new legislative effort, she illustrates how parent-driven passion is reshaping public policy to make the world safer and more inclusive for everyone.
