Message: <blockquote data-quote="ElizabethMcCallister" data-source="post: 2668676" data-attributes="member: 577029">Question regarding businesses that say no outside food or drink allowed.I brought my 8yr T1D to a local skating rink this weekend. You purchase your tickets at a window then they buzz you to go into the rink. After I purchased the tickets I was told I needed to return the juice & snacks I brought for my T1D daughter to my car or throw it away.I tried to explain this if for my T1D daughter & for medical purposes to prevent lows. I was told I can purchase food drink inside.  As a line is forming behind me & making me feel uncomfortable arguing with these people. I finally agreed to leave what brought for her behind. Fortunately she did not go low. If she had I would have took our skates off & ran out to my car with her…I believe it is against the law for a business not allowing to carry juice & uppers on us & telling us we can purchase them inside the arena? Could anyone please provide documentation or proof that T1Ds are allowed to carry food & drink regardless or what rules businesses have? <a href="https://decembearduk.org/viewtopic.php?t=15917" target="_blank">What food drives your blood sugar up no matter what?</a></blockquote>
