When traveling in Bali, it’s crucial for those with peanut allergies to avoid foods containing peanuts. While Bali offers a diverse culinary scene, peanuts may be used in some dishes and sauces, so extra caution is necessary.

Here are some foods and products that may contain peanuts and should be avoided or approached with caution while in Bali:
- Indonesian Salad (Gado-gado): This traditional Indonesian salad uses peanut sauce as its dressing.
- Peanut Sauce in Dishes: Peanut sauce is a common condiment in Indonesian cuisine, so always check if a dish contains it before eating. Confirm with the server when ordering.
- Traditional Indonesian Desserts: Some traditional Indonesian sweets may contain peanuts, so be cautious when trying them.
- Chocolates or Candies: Some chocolates and candies may contain peanuts, so always check the label before purchasing.
When traveling in Bali, understanding the ingredients and preparation of food is essential. In addition to avoiding foods with peanuts, you can inform the server by saying, “I am allergic to peanuts.” If the server doesn’t speak English, you can show them this Indonesian phrase: Saya alergi kacang tanah (Indonesian).
More importantly, to avoid accidental ingestion, don’t forget to carry emergency allergy relief supplies with you at all times.
