There should be a rule about no in-depth discussion of allergies on first dates. If you're a dude, it just makes you sound like a weenie. You have to be sure a lady is fairly smitten with you before you draw attention to any major flaw or weakness. Food allergies being a huge weakness, if you ask me. Nothing more high maintenance than a dude with food allergies.

If you can't eat cheese, then don't order cheese. Just don't talk about it. We don't want to think about your bowels coping with milk enzymes. Same for any problems involving a lot of snot. Not sexy.
