FAAST (Food Allergy Awareness Systems Technology) is a standardized system developed to enable restauranteurs and their patrons to efficiently and accurately communicate allergy restrictions to restaurant staff. Hi Susan,
Here is the text that I think will work on the FAAST website “register” page. If not I will get in touch with Sean for you, and have him insert this information onto the webs
ite. Thank you for your interest in FAAST! Please sign up on the right to become a member of the FAAST Online Community. By signing up, you not only receive the list of benefits listed below, but you are an important part of building our online community. In doing so, this will further illustrate to the restaurant industry the number of allergy sufferers and members of the general public who feel the FAAST system’s time has come! Once our membership numbers have increased to a point that will turn the heads of restaurant owners, they will be more likely to come onboard with the FAAST system and implement it in their establishments. When you join the FAAST Online Community, you are helping to send a strong, clear message to the restaurant industry that allergy awareness and education is an issue that FAAST addresses head-on! Benefits of Membership
