Im a vegetarian and have been to many confs... i took pictures of a bunch of my previous
badges from confs as "research" for what we might need and noticed quite a few
had my dietary requests on them. The rationale being, sometimes ppl wo restrictions eat
the special order food and the folks with the restrictions end up with nothing to eat.
How are the food ordering and dietary restrictions being handled (eg bagged lunches and
when theyre gone thats it? Or made to order - less of an issue.) We are collecting dietary
info in the registration iirc so just wondering what we actually do w it and if we care
it's on the badge. If it needs to be on the badge then we can certainly handle
discreetly (colored stickers on back placed during reg for example.) If not, we dont plan
for it.
Does anybody know the food situation?

+1 ... speaking as someone who has a dietary restriction, I definitely
prefer keeping it to myself unless it is necessary to discuss it. If
the
data was encoded or something (like in a bar code or something) and it
made it easier to "get lunch" that would be fine. But I don't think we
are doing something quite that complicated ;)
