Food for Special Needs

In the hospitality industry, you really do have to please everyone. Chefs, caterers, and dining hall managers must accommodate dietary limits whenever possible. This video examines special food needs that restaurant customers and banquet attendees sometimes have. It identifies three major reasons for meal restrictions—allergies and intolerances, diseases and disorders, and cultural and religious beliefs—and explores several examples in each category: allergies to peanuts, seafood, and milk…diabetes, hypertension, bowel cancer, and cardiovascular disease and their links to high levels of sugar, fat, and salt…and the dietary observances of the Jewish and Islamic faiths. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. (29 minutes)
