Those do sound like two very different things

I agree. Secretly feeding people vegetables is waaay worse.

There are plenty of stories of someone "secretly feeding" people things that they end up having an allergic reaction to. In some cases it can end in felony charges.

I've never met anyone with an allergy to meat, but I've definitely known people who were allergic to fruits and vegetables. I know two people with tomato allergies, someone with an onion allergy (who is epi-pen levels of allergic), I knew someone who was allergic to corn and chocolate, and I know someone who is allergic to strawberries. Oh, and I know about three people with various levels of wheat allergy. And a few people with diverticulosis (meaning they can't eat seeds). And then of course, there's the now-infamous and seemingly ubiquitous peanut allergies that have literally killed people.

(Related but not exactly the same, I also know someone with a high fructose corn syrup sensitivity.)

I think the closest I've ever known someone to with an allergy to animal products is the one person I know who has lactose intolerance. So dairy as a whole is right out for them.

Food has always been the one thing that I consider utterly sacrosanct - you shouldn't be fucking with anyone's food, ever, regardless of whether or not it's a prank, or because you think you're making it taste better for them, or because you want to sneak healthy food into what they're eating against their will. If you do, you're an asshole, full stop. Your motivations are meaningless - you're showing a profound lack of respect for the person you're fucking with no matter what your intentions are.
