A1: a bit of research ahead of time helps. Finding eating options at hotel and nearby and even calling them to confirm is a good idea.
Also carrying some non perishable acceptable items.

A1. One important thing is to learn how to ask about ingredients in the local language(s)to make sure you are understood! I'm largely vegetarian so I learn how to say "no meat?"

A1 Travelers with restricted diets need to communicate in advance to all travel suppliers involved starting with the airlines, if flying, down to advising last minute day tours, restaurants at the destination. Carry some personal snacks in case of errors. #TTOT Image: @pixabay

Hotel breakfast are pretty straightforward. Make that the main meal of the day and have snacks in case needed later. Check restaurant menus ahead of time where possible. When in doubt the simpler the food the easier to avoid allergens, e.g. meat skewers, fruit #ttot https://t.co/3hcXCF50pw

A1 Research typical eating customs of the place & find a list of restaurants to cater to your dietary needs. If on medically restricted diets, find a list of doctors/hospitals nearby & your country’s embassy. Make sure you have travel health insurance for this. #TTOT Jinho Jung

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @SonjaSwissLife A1: I have a peanut allergy so I bring Zyrtec, my inhaler, and Epi-pen with me. If English isn’t the main language I also pack translation cards. Ahead of time I try to research what foods might have nuts and look into restaurants that clearly label menus #TTOT

A2. I don't have food allergies, but maybe have a note written in the local language to show to people, and definitely an EpiPen!

A2 Travelers with food allergies carry sufficient amounts of needed medications & personal snacks (car-ry-on & keep nearby) & a medical explanation card in the local language in case you pass out, along with a phone contact to someone knowing your condition. #TTOT Image: @pixabay

If while traveling, you experienced a situation where 'forbidden foods' for you or a companion were the only choices when invited for a meal, how would you handle this? #TTOT

A3: Explain politely the medical issues and take leave or just try to bring something from nearby eateries and join them back.

A3. I often think about this. If I were invited for a meal at someone's home, I can imagine circumstances in which I'd eat what I was served before giving offense. Usually I'd just try to eat around my restrictions, eat side dishes, not make a big deal of it.

Make your host aware of the situation before you go if possible. If they won't accommodate then don't go. Be your own advocate and put your health first. For business conference dinners with a set menu I simply skip the course & eat more of others. #ttot https://t.co/6x8vMtaKuR

A3 If unable to call ahead for special meals or a menu inquiry, discretely bring something to eat but 1st talk with the chef for alternatives, showing your local language medical card. Don’t wait until the meals are served. #TTOT Image: @SonjaSwissLife
