Allergators warn others your child has a food allergy

Does your child have a severe food allergy? Do you worry whenever you send them off to a field trip or other function where you might not be around to keep an eye on what ends up on their plate? If so, Allergators might just be for you. The company carries shirts, sweatshirts, lunch bags, dresses, even disposable wristbands and watches that warn others of their severe food allergy. The toddler sizes are cute, and they even carry up to an adult size large for older kids and teens (or for adults who want to warn others, I suppose).

As a parent, I haven't had to deal with food allergies, but this seems like a good idea if you know you're sending your child into a situation where they're going to be exposed to trigger foods, or if you have a child who, despite your best efforts, just isn't compliant. It also seems like it might be useful for a very young child or a child with special needs who may not be able to communicate their allergy. I can also see, however, if you made your child wear an Allergator shirt to every event, that they might get tired of being singled out. Parents of children with allergies, let's hear your take -- what do you think of Allergators?
