Milk Allergy Translation in Spanish

If you really want to make sure chefs and restaurant staff understand that you have a milk allergy when in Spain, and be taken seriously, we recommend listing foods that contain milk.

This is why we've made Spanish milk allergy translation cards. Our cards provide an accurate translation of your milk allergy, listing foods containing milk and include a warning about cross contact. 

Kyle Dine, Founder and CEO of Equal Eats, says:

"We know that Spain is one of the most popular countries in the world to visit. I've traveled to Spain many times and have enjoyed visiting many cities, including Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville and Malaga. I used my Equal Eats cards at every restaurant and was able to dine out safely. We want everyone living with food allergies, celiac disease and any other dietary restriction to feel safe and understood when traveling to and dining out in Spain." 

And Spain's popularity as a destination to visit is set to continue. A recent study "NextGen travellers and destinations: our vision on the tourism industry transformation", jointly developed by Google and Deloitte, shows that by 2040 Spain is predicted to be the most visited place in the world with 110 million visitors per year.

FEEL SAFE, USE AN EQUAL EATS CARD
