im NOT a doctor...

if your wife is allergic to onions she probably doesn't like garlic either

I would forget the EpiPen...those are dangerous...pure adenelin (sp) ...epipens are only for people who "swell up" ...the poison is still in your body and you NOW need to go to a hospital

if her throat gets sore...a sip of booze will relax it...but again the poison is inside

if any prepared food says on the label "spices" then FOR SURE it has onions and garlic

I think the BEST advice someone gave is to prepare her food in advance and bring it with you

remember if YOU eat onions and shes allergic to them ...you sweat...shes allergic to YOU too

you are lucky shes not allergic to soy or corn...soy is even in canned tuna and soy in medicine like advil...even allergy pills have corn in them

the world does not accommodate food allergies...beware

I agree with "bring your food with you". Anaphylactic shock (from the allergic reaction) is not to be played with and forget the recommendations of anyone here who is not a fully qualified doctor and clearly states so. Good medical care is not always within easy reach here, so don't push it. If good care is to be found, it can be hours away.

Plenty of fun to be had here, but do bring your own food. Then no big deal.
