Abstract

Owners and managers (n = 102) of independently owned restaurants in Metro Orlando, FL, completed a web-based questionnaire that assessed food allergy knowledge and attitudes. Participants were confident in their knowledge of food allergens (4.28 ± 0.63). The attitude item with the lowest mean score was “not all restaurants needed to comply with food allergy policies” (2.70 ± 1.26), suggesting participants believed compliance with food allergy policies was critical in all restaurants. Eighty (78.4%) participants correctly answered all 10 knowledge questions. The mean knowledge score was 7.7 of 10 possible points. Florida requires foodservice workers to be knowledgeable about food allergies but does not mandate food allergy training or certification. It is in the best interest of foodservice establishments to train workers on food allergies to safeguard customer health.
佛罗里达州奥兰多市区独立餐厅老板和经理的食物过敏知识和态度
佛罗里达州奥兰多市独立餐厅的老板和经理(n = 102)完成了一份基于网络的问卷,评估食物过敏知识和态度。参与者对食物过敏原的知识有信心(4.28±0.63)。平均得分最低的态度项是“并非所有餐馆都需要遵守食物过敏政策”(2.70±1.26),表明参与者认为遵守食物过敏政策对所有餐馆都至关重要。80名(78.4%)参与者正确回答了所有10个知识问题。平均知识得分为7.7分(满分10分)。佛罗里达州要求餐饮服务人员了解食物过敏,但不要求进行食物过敏培训或认证。对工作人员进行食物过敏方面的培训,以保障顾客的健康,符合餐饮服务机构的最大利益。
