Italian Language/allergy translation

Advertisement


Question
Hi

I will be travelling to Tuscany in a week for my honeymoon and I have one problem...I am allergic to nuts (almonds,cashews, walnuts, pecans etc.."not peanuts")  All of the internet automated translations seem unsure of the translation and give conflicting results.  I need something short that i can write on a
small piece of paper and show waiters while there.  Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.  

Answer
hi Jason,

thank you for contacting me!!!!!

in order not to have any problems I would write the following:


Allergia alla
frutta secca in guscio: mandorla, nocciola, noce, anacardio, noce pecan, noce brasiliana, pistacchio, noce, macadamia e prodotti derivati


for ref. see: http://www.asmaeallergia.it/etichettecee.php


I wish you a fantastic honeymoon!!!
