The response should be the same one many of our parents gave us growing up when we bitched about what was for dinner. "This is what we have for dinner. You can either eat it or not. I don't care. But I'm not making you anything else"
If it made you violently ill I don't think that would be the attitude

Yes, a 2 year old having allergies is a direct repaonse to poor decision making

I would venture a guess that most of the gluten and dairy allergy people don’t get “violently ill”.

Then perhaps that might be incentive for YOU to do whatever is necessary to ensure you can get whatever food you need rather than EXPECT charity to accommodate your particular issue.

No, the 2 year old's mother having to rely on and demanding that a CHARITY accommodate her child's special dietary issue is the problem. Perhaps it is because I have some pride, self respect and a sense of responsiblity, but I would do whatever is necessary to provide for my child rather than expecting someone else to do so. Even if that meant tremendous self sacrifice on my part.
The charity is doing something THEY AREN'T OBLIGATED TO DO simply to help others. So again, the simple response should be: "This is what we have to GIVE you. If you don't want it, that's fine. But we aren't going to go out of our way to accommodate your special interest." Accommodate your own damn special interests

Of course not. But nothing is precluding "Emily Brown of Kansas City" to get off her lazy rear-end and find a part time job at Dollar General or McDonalds that meets her needs for the two year old. Emily Brown evidently has no shame.
