I have one brother who's got so many dietary restrictions that I've
given up. He can't eat dairy, onions, garlic, paprika. I'm sure
there's more. Oh, chick peas will kill him, this I learned when
I tried bringing 3 bean salad that he could have.
At this point we just bring plain vegetable separated out from
whatever dish we're bringing to family dinners. Plain carrots,
green beans, potatoes, whatever.
Thing is, he doesn't ask anyone to change things for him. He finds
something to eat and his wife will bring pumpkin pie he can eat,
something like that. He doesn't make a big issue out of it.
