To be annoyed at sister not eating at my house

My sister suffered from an egg allergy as a child. She doesn't seem to any more and it was never dangerous-an upset stomach generally. Today I went to a lot of effort to do a buffet for quite a few family members. There was quiche and coleslaw. My sister refused to eat anything even though she could see that these things weren't coming in to contact with any other food or cutlery. Then she asked me if it was safe to eat a cake that she herself brought - I.e had the knife that I took clean out of the drawer touched anything else. I just found it so rude and over the top when I had made the effort to cook (with 2 children under 3...).

You are being a tool, sorry. Overreacting massively.

Has she always made a fuss OP?

I do have some sympathy for you. My mother has type II diabetes, and relishes making a performance about it every time there's food involved. I often come away from family occasions thinking less than charitable thoughts meself TBH.

Any chance she could have a specific reason to be particularly paranoid at the moment? e.g. early stages of pregnancy?

Good op, really doubt you're sister is being selfish, or attention seeking on purpose.
It really isn't fun having tonavoid food!
