My daughter has a severe airborne cinnamon allergy. If you can smell cinnamon in the air, her airway swells up and she breaks out in hives. We carry an Epipen for her.
For example, she can't eat at Burger King because they now carry Cinnabon and the cinnamon smell gets trapped in the air of the restaurant. However, she can shop at our local mall, even though there is a Cinnabon in the food court, as long as she skirts around that section of the food court.
I have not been to Disney World since the late 90s, and we're planning our first family trip there in early December. Other than Mickey's Philharmagic, what other places/restaurants do we need to avoid for my daughter's safety?
Is the Philharmagic the only attraction that pipes in a cinnamon scent?
What closed air restaurants smell like cinnamon due to their dessert menu?
Will there be any parades to avoid in December?
I know many hotels put up gingerbread houses in their lobby during December. Is the Pop Century usually exempt from this tradition?
Obviously, as the time gets closer to our reservation, I'll be on the phone with the special diets department, but I'd like to do some pre-planning before that point, so I have an idea of where to get dining reservations, and plan a general itinerary for the trip.
Thanks in advance for any information to keep my daughter safe and out of the ER during our vacation!
