Applebee's is horrible when it comes to making sure that allergies are attended to. I cannot stress enough, it's not a good place to eat unless you get a salad with no meat on it. I've worked at my local restaurant for half a year now, and am still astounded at things my manager says, or how I'm sent over to talk to the guests who have Celiac because...

I can't give up cheese, no matter how much it makes my stomach hurt or how much my mom badgers me. I'm not a shining example, sorry xD

I can imagine it might be your sister acting out. I know my sister has the same sort of mind-frame. She might view your disease as you getting more attention than her, and with your mom giving you so much kitchen space, it seems so. People have weird ways of showing their jealousy and for all the wrong reasons, but my sister was the same way (though less...

I'm in the same boat. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac, so I called the food department at Duquesne University and the man I spoke to was extremely accommodating. He walked me through the different areas of the dining hall and assured me that if I found their options unacceptable, a chef would specially prepare meals for me. When in doubt, just call...
