Mold Allergy? Dine Safely at Cheese Restaurants with MM Food

Dining out with a mold allergy can feel daunting—especially at cheese-focused restaurants where blue cheeses, aged varieties, and fermented ingredients are staples. Mold spores in foods like Roquefort, Gorgonzola, or Camembert can trigger reactions ranging from mild discomfort to severe respiratory issues. Yet, avoiding these spots altogether isn’t the only option. With the MM Food app, you can confidently navigate menus and savor meals without compromising safety.

Why Cheese Restaurants Pose Challenges

Mold is intentionally used in many cheeses for flavor and texture. Hidden sources also lurk in dishes containing:

• Dry-aged meats
• Soy sauce or fermented condiments
• Mushrooms or truffle oils
• Certain breads and charcuterie Even cross-contamination in kitchens can pose risks. Identifying these on a menu—especially if it’s not in your native language—is tricky and stressful.
