Your egg allergy travel card, in the waiter's own language
Egg hides in far more than omelettes — batters, fresh pasta, mayonnaise, glazed bread and many desserts. TrustBite puts your egg allergy on a clear card restaurant staff read in 24 languages, including Japanese, Chinese, Thai and Arabic. It works offline, and adds barcode plus AI menu scanning so you can order abroad with fewer nasty surprises.
Where egg hides on a menu abroad
Egg turns up in places a quick glance won't catch. The shiny 'egg wash' brushed on bread rolls, croissants and pastries. Mayonnaise and aioli in sauces, dressings and sandwiches. Fresh pasta, gnocchi and many filled pastas. Batters on tempura, fritto misto, schnitzel and fried chicken. Some Asian noodles (egg noodles, wonton, ramen), meatballs and meatloaf bound with egg, and 'egg-drop' soups. Then desserts: custard, crème brûlée, meringue, mousse, ice cream, macarons, French toast and most cakes. Even a foam on a cocktail or a glossy pastry glaze can be egg. Naming the dish, not just the allergen, is what gets you a straight answer.
Say it clearly, in their language
A misheard 'no egg' is how accidents happen. TrustBite shows staff a written card that names egg as your allergen and asks them to check hidden sources — batters, glazes, mayo and fresh pasta — in 24 languages. Hand your phone across the counter in Tokyo, Bangkok, Cairo or Rome and let them read it in Japanese, Thai, Arabic or Italian. The card loads offline, so a dead SIM or no Wi‑Fi on arrival doesn't leave you stuck. You can add your severity level and an emergency (ICE) contact right on the card.
Scan the label and the menu
In a foreign supermarket, scan a barcode and TrustBite checks Open Food Facts data for egg, returning a simple green, yellow or red verdict — useful when the ingredient list is in a script you can't read. At the table, point the AI menu scan at a printed menu or snap a photo of a packaged food to flag likely egg-containing dishes before you order. Treat both as a first filter that helps you ask sharper questions — always confirm with staff before you eat, especially with fried foods and desserts where cross-contact with egg is common.

Does the egg allergy card work without internet?
Yes. Once TrustBite is installed, your allergen card displays fully offline in all 24 languages, so you can show it even with no signal, no roaming or no Wi‑Fi after landing.
Which languages can staff read the card in?
24, including Japanese, Chinese, Thai and Arabic alongside major European languages — so the card matches most popular travel destinations for egg-allergy travellers.
What foods most often hide egg when travelling?
Egg wash on bread and pastries, mayonnaise and aioli, fresh and filled pasta, tempura and other batters, egg noodles, and desserts like custard, meringue, mousse, ice cream and macarons. Always ask staff to check.
Is TrustBite free, and is it a medical device?
The card, barcode scanning and core features are free; optional Pro unlocks unlimited scans and AI menu analysis. TrustBite is a communication aid, not a medical device, and does not diagnose or treat allergies.
TrustBite is a communication and information aid, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent any allergy or medical condition, and cannot guarantee a dish or product is free from egg. Always verify ingredients directly with restaurant staff, carry any prescribed medication such as antihistamines or an adrenaline auto-injector, and call your local emergency services immediately if you experience a severe allergic reaction.
