What about allergies awareness?
Hello openstreetmap community! A friend forwarded me their project yesterday : to map allergy awareness in restaurants. Yes the thing is broad and cumbersome but it's only ar this occation that I realised osm didn't provide keys to reflect allergy trust or allergic risk. It is still emerging as a science but transparency laws have landed -- in france at least -- so there should be a way. Which lead me to this : has someone knowledge of a discussion on that topic? I looked around already but in vain.

If there's national scheme then we could potentially map that, but outside of that this sound very difficult to survey and might be something that could change far too often to be reliably mapped in OSM.
The
diet:prefix is used to map this kind of data on osm. As always it's documented in the wiki: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:diet:*The page lists some renders, maps.
Also there is clearly an effort made on diets based on choices and I am the first glad of it ! But allergies are rather more critical.
