Future Cruise Question

[Kracka]

My only concern with premade, catered food, would be those people who have certain food allergies (like myself). If someone needed an item without a certain ingredient, they couldn't get it in a buffet.

As long as there were choices for all participants, I wouldn't mind paying the few extra bucks and having the extra time to get back on the road.

You have raised a good point. If we go this route I will post the menu or potential menus in advance to make sure it'll work for people.

Thanks, Chris. :)

If people don't mind me asking, what types of food/ingredients is everyone allergic to?

[polishmafia]

I'm allergic to wheat. Technically gluten, which is in a protein of wheat.

Easiest thing to ask a potential catering/buffet company is "Do you offer gluten free items?" If they don't know what you're talking about, find another company.

Got it!

Say it was a simple meal like cold-cut deli sandwhich bar and/or BBQ pork sandwiches, coleslaw and/or potato salad, baked beans, potato chips, fruits/veggies, and some cookies; would that work around the allergies and give people enough choices?

ali would have to see there menu with all the things in the food. We went to famous daves for craig and every thing on the menu had msg in it and 90% of all sauses have it in them also

I like the catered buffet idea. Would be interesting to try.

I'm allergic to catered food, salad forks, and some Kevin Bacon movies.

Great idea though, with having a catered meal. I could about imagine the hassle of getting food for such a large group at a restaraunt.

Hope you come out west, it'd be nice to not have a road trip to go on a road trip.
