Navigating Vegan Cafes with a Pea Protein Allergy: Your Ultimate Guide

For those with a pea protein allergy, dining at vegan cafes can feel like navigating a minefield. Pea protein is a popular plant-based protein substitute in vegan dishes, from burgers to smoothie bowls. Thankfully, the mm food app empowers diners to safely explore vegan menus while avoiding allergens like pea protein. Here’s how to use it:

1. The Hidden Challenge of Pea Protein

Vegan menus often rely on pea protein due to its versatility and nutritional profile. However, for allergy sufferers, accidental ingestion can trigger severe reactions. Common dishes to watch for include plant-based meats, protein bars, and even some dairy-free cheeses.

2. Translate Menus with Confidence

Traveling or dining at international vegan spots? Use the mm food app to instantly translate menus into your preferred language. Identify pea protein (often listed as pisum sativum, pea isolate, or textured vegetable protein*) and avoid hidden risks.

3. Customize Your Dietary Filters

Set pea protein as an allergen in the app’s dietary restriction settings. The AI scans menus in real time, flagging unsafe items and suggesting alternatives. For example, a tofu scramble might be safe, while a ‘chick’n’ patty could be risky.

4. Pro Tips for Allergy-Safe Dining

• Always double-check with staff after using the app for cross-verification.
• Look for cafes that label allergens clearly.
• Use the app’s ‘save favorites’ feature to bookmark safe dishes for future visits.
