My wife has a milk allergy. Depending on the ingredient, it can go pretty bad. If they put regular cream in something, she might need to use her EpiPen.
There’s no grumbling or clarification that works. The server will almost always write down no milk, no cheese. Half the time, the kitchen will forget, mix up, or ignore it; sometimes, the server grabs the wrong thing from the warmer.
Without knowing your location many if not most restaurants in US will only allow allergy meals be delivered by a manager. When I worked Buffalo Wild Nuggets the manager would have to prepare and deliver the allergy meal. It keeps the customers more honest when it isn’t just a server taking the blame.
Yeah, US, It’s super rare for her to be taken seriously. I don’t think we’ve had a manager come out for an allergy in 8 years now and that was vacation at Disney.
More often, if they try, they’ll send the waitstaff back out to complain that she can’t have the meal because there are eggs in this or that when she was clear about it being milk, they want to tie it into dairy and for some unknown reason, eggs are considered dairy.
Yeah, why ARE eggs dairy? Just because milk products and eggs are both refrigerated? (in the U.S.)
AI slop has frustrated me in my search to find out. I don’t need 100 hastily-generated pages telling me that eggs aren’t actually dairy. I want to know why they are in the dairy category!
I don’t believe you that eggs are commonly considered dairy products. I’ve never heard of that before, and would need something to back up your claim to believe it.

Eggs are not dairy, that’s why you can’t find it.
Unless you are using some esoteric definition of dairy that I’m not aware of.
You’re missing my point, and that of the person to whom I replied.
Why are eggs in the dairy aisle of American supermarkets and commonly considered dairy products?
Obviously eggs aren’t made of milk.
