Today, my vegan friend, not knowing that I'm allergic to soy, snuck tofu into my chicken burrito to show me that it tastes the same. I didn't notice until several minutes later when my chest and neck were covered in hives. She still blamed the hives on "E.Coli that must be from the chicken." FML

Tell her to actually look up E.Coli, it literally takes a 5 minute internet search. E.Coli does not give you hives. It's a serious illness from bacteria that gives you different symptoms, similar to very bad gastroenteritis (stomach flu), and can even effect your kidneys. She needs to accept your dietary choices, not unknowingly push them onto you by hiding them in your food, that's just dangerous for exactly this reason. You aren't a child throwing a tantrum cause you don't want to eat your vegetables, you're a capable person that simply does not want to make such a drastic change in diet.

You need to seriously consider dropping this person as a friend. Not only did they trick you into eating something, which turned dangerous. But they also refused to believe you had an actual allergic reaction. Do not ever let this person around your food let alone cook for you. With a friend like that who needs enemies.

Allergies aren't really a dietary choice, but I see your point. What the friend did could have killed OP if the reaction was severe enough.

What I meant #11 is the OP is clearly not a vegan, and his "friend" was trying to push veganism on him. That's why she put the tofu in his food, to show him it tastes the same and probably to try to convince him to make the switch. She needs to accept his dietary choices that he is not a vegan.

I'm guessing someone's going to get some beef snuck into her food soon right??

Now we all know that vegans are terrible. (I don't mean it literally, my sister is vegan.)

This is an example why vegans have a bad rep.

I don't agree with what your friend did but I think it was innocent (until trying to blame it on something else) since they truly didn't know you were allergic. You should have told your friend sooner since soy can be a huge part of the diet depending on preferences. I'm glad it wasn't worse!

On top of that, as another poster said, after he clearly had a reaction, she refused to acknowledge what SHE did. She blamed it on the chicken instead of taking responsibility that her giving him tofu is what caused his allergic reaction.

Friends take responsibility for their actions, not try to pass it off by saying something ignorant.

Tell your friend she is retarded... If she knew you were allergic than she isn't your friend...
