Food allergies can be fatal, so being able to travel to the Disney (and Universal) parks and safely eat is a major concern for families with food allergies. This reality is known all too well for Colby, who has allergies to peanuts, tree nuts, and peas.

This week Colby sits down with his dad, Darrell, and mom, Kari, talk about how they discovered Colby had severe food allergies, and what their food experience has been over the last 16 years. The first half of the episode serves as an educational breakdown of food allergies so those who have never experienced it, might better understand the importance of being aware of food allergies.

In the second half of the episode, the family shares their experiences at Disneyland, California Adventure, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Universal Studios Orlando. In short, their first experience at Disneyland and Universal Studios Hollywood was excellent and proved that both parks care deeply about their guests, and have trained their staff well to make sure guests are safe. Subsequent visits to the park have proven the first experiences were not a fluke.
