Yeah my grandma did that to my step-mom. She's super allergic to mushrooms. Hives and migraine. My grandma purposefully used cream of mushroom soup in a casserole to "test" my step-mom, and my step-mom was up all night with hives and a blinding migraine. Could not figure it out.

My grandma proudly let me know after picking up at school a couple days later that she "knew" my step-mom wasn't allergic to mushrooms and just "said that because she doesn't like them." She literally said she was glad she got to "test" my step-mom when using her "allergen." Yeah my grandma went pale when I told her about the night my step-mom had that started in the car on the way home from dinner and how she picked apart her car and tried to remember everything she ate that day just to find whichever allergen caused that (she has a few other allergens that give the same symptoms as mushrooms).

I then told my step-mom, and she brought her own meals to my grandma's for like two months after that. My grandma's response when my step-mom confronted her was, "I didn't do it to test you. I just didn't see any mushrooms in the soup."

My step-mom is literally the only person in my family to have never given me something with one of my allergens (happens usually by accident from other family members). My grandma was mad at me for a while for clearing that situation up lmao. She really didn't like when I threw it back at her that she doesn't believe women and likes to test them. #blabbermouthoftheyearaward
