Allergen-Free Snack Products

There are a variety of foods you can pack for travel by car, train, boat or plane for an extended period of time. Read each label, review ingredients and use your best judgment to determine which snacks are safe for you.

Bring enough food to get you to your destination and for your excursions throughout your trip. If you’re flying eight hours, for example, take two to three meals worth of food in case of delays.

Peanut-Free and Nut-Free Snacks
Pack your favorite snacks in re-sealable plastic bags or purchase them in convenient single serving sizes. These products are manufactured in dedicated peanut-free and tree nut-free facilities. They may also be free of other food allergens.

Additionally, some items can make eating snacks on-the-road a little easier. If there is room in your carry-on luggage or suitcase, consider packing the following as needed.

• Packets of dressings, condiments and/or sauces
• Re-sealable plastic baggies, toaster bags, oven sheets and/or aluminum foil
• Sterile wipes and/or napkins
• Disposable silverware, containers, cups and/or plates

Portable cold packs and a pocket knife can also come in handy. However, if you’re traveling by air, they must be checked with baggage before entering security due to U.S. regulations.

The world is your oyster. Yes, there are challenges to special-diet traveling but food concerns needn’t keep you stuck at home. Education, preparation and communication are your keys to safe traveling, whether it’s around the corner or around the world. Traveling with food allergies and celiac/coeliac disease can be rewarding—and delicious. So get going and start your own adventure.
