I ask about food allergies to help me keep track of anything that may
come up. I figured it is more likely for people to know now what their
food allergies than what candies they will bring. I figure it is better
to ask and know in advance than to have an accidental surprise reaction
because of irresistible sweets. :-)

I haven't had anyone note an allergy before, but I'd rather ask the
question than leave it unasked. If there are any allergies noted, I will
send a group email to anyone who confirmed their participation with me
closer to Flock.
