I know you've been doing this a long time, but just asking for "no almonds" without mentioning the allergy is going to get you in trouble (like it just did) because people don't take a little request seriously.
My sister is lactose intolerant, and has learned to us the word "allergy" when ordering at restaurants because that is the trigger word to get the server to listen to what you have to say. Just asking, "is there milk in that" or "is that made with butter?" Won't do the trick. She always gets, "I don’t think so"-- which is NOT helpful. And saying "lactose intolerant" doesn't work either because people don't understand. "There's only a little," is a VERY common response. Ahe is sensitive to even the slightest bit of lactose- a little bit of butter or whey will make her very ill. People are very ignorant!
