Consolidate with I don't eat pork, beef, etc. at "I don't eat X" or similar and redirect there. Cheers, Facts707 (talk) 21:40, 16 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Keep, this is rather typical content for any phrase book and actually a useful phrase in a restaurant or hotel if you're a 'strict' vegetarian rather than a pescetarian. I have no idea what you want to turn the phrase book into. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 10:24, 25 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Yes, but I don't eat pork can redirect to I don't eat... and then list the common nouns there: pork, beef, wheat, gluten, shellfish, strawberries, peanut butter and various other potentially life-threatening allergens or disagreeable culinary delights without asking our editors to translate every "I don't eat something".

That is a complete non-solution, there is neither an agreed layout nor a precedent for that kind of entry and editors would still have to translate every "I don't eat X" individually. If there is any kind of agreement or assimilation involving the word for the food item in question that setup would only create an even bigger mess. Normal phrase books evade the problem by only allowing one or a few languages. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 10:27, 26 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Keep. I tend to think that common major dietary restrictions are one of the more important things for which a phrasebook entry can exist. bd2412 T 02:51, 4 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Consolidate. We already have I'm ... year(s) old, what's so unthinkable about a merged I don't eat ...? --Fytcha (talk) 16:10, 16 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • A root "I don't eat..." form may be different depending on the thing being eaten, particularly in languages where the names of foods my be assigned different numbers or genders. bd2412 T 21:04, 26 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
