FOOD ALLERGIESBY D.J GODDARD, ETHAN&JAY

ISSUE

• THE ISSUE IS FOOD ALLERGIES. THE FOODS THAT MAKE YOU SWELL UP OR BREAK OUT WHEN YOU EAT THEM. IF YOU HAVE FOOD ALLERGIES ALWAYS KEEP A VACCINE WITH YOU SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL. I DON’T KEEP ANY WITH ME AND I AM ALLERGIC TO FISH. THE REASON I DON’T HAVE VACCINES IS BECAUSE I MAKE SURE I CHECK WHAT IS THE FOOD BEFORE I EAT IT.

POINT

• THE POINT IS THAT THEY ARE TYING TO FIND CURES FOR ALLERGIES. THEY HAVE NOTICED THAT THE MOST COMMON ALLERGIES ARE FROM PEANUTS. THEY HAVE DECIDED TO TAKE PB&J AND REMOVE THEM FROM SCHOOL LUNCHES.

• THE SCHOOLS HAVE BECOME ALLERGEN FREE ZONES WHERE A FOOD IS BANNED FROM THE SCHOOL ENTIRELY. THAT MEANS IF ONE PERSON IS ALLERGIC TO GLUTEN THERE CAN BE NO GLUTEN IN ANY ONES LUNCH. THAT MEANS THAT EVERY THING HAS TO BE GLUTEN FREE.

COUNTER POINT

• PEOPLE SAY THAT WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO PACK WHAT EVER THEY WANT IN THERE LUNCHES. THE PEOPLE WITH FOOD ALLERGIES SHOULD MANAGE THEIR ALLERGENS.

• ONLY A SMALL MINORITY OF CHILDREN ARE EFFECTED BY ALLERGIES. PARENTS SHOULD MANAGE FOOD ALLERGIES ON THEIR OWN WITH OUT COMPLETELY BANNING FOODS IN THEIR CHILD'S SCHOOL.
