Not that most of my games are gore fests filled with offensive content, but when I run a game in a public venue I make a concerted effort to avoid graphic depictions of violence, bad language, and steer away from subjects that are likely to make people uncomfortable.  Not just for the people at the table but for the other people who might walking by or playing a game at a nearby table.Growing up, we'd occasionally go to places where the smell of roasted nuts permeated the air.  One of the local malls here in Little Rock used to have a Nut Hut, where they'd roast peanuts, cashews, almonds, etc., etc., and you could just smell it before you'd catch sight of the place.  I've never heard of someone having an allergic reaction simply by walking into the mall.   The idea that just smelling nuts or peanut butter will trigger an allergic reaction is a myth.  Unless you're in a location where peanut dust permeats the air, you're not going to have a reaction to just smelling it.  A psychosomatic reaction maybe, but not an allergy response.  There's nothing wrong with eating peanuts at the game store.</blockquote>
