SelectWisely makes food allergy and health translation cards for travel. These food allergy and health translation cards by SelectWisely cover many foods and world languages that are applicable to travel. Here's my review of some SelectWisely food allergy and health translation travel cards.For people with food allergies in America, it can still be a challenge to make sure they don't eat foods that will trigger allergic reactions. Even with all the labeling on products, that doesn't necessarily guarantee they don't get the wrong kind of foods when they eat at restaurants or travel in planes. What happens when those who only speak English are dining or shopping for food in another country where the food labels aren't as complete as they are in the USA or the restaurant servers don't understand English at all or very well and/or the dining establishments cross-contaminate via food-to-food/hand/equipment (where numerous foods come into contact with each other, including ones that cause allergies in people)?
While nothing in life is totally guaranteed, these food allergy and health translation cards by SelectWisely are another line of defense for people who travel and who eat out. Even if dining locally where the staff and patrons speak the same language, the cards can be a good discussion point to where the person with allergies and/or other health conditions can directly address the issues of cross-contamination discussed above.
I will illustrate one example via pictures and description.
