My answer would be: "You're asking the wrong Linux SysAdmin." I've taken to this answer whenever I get asked a question that's way outside my area of expertise.

It would make me think you're so bad at your interview process you lazily copied and pasted questions from another source without even looking at them. Either that, or a crazy person wrote the questions. In either case, gigantic red warning flags about this company.

First, I'd check the cooking oil and seasonings for common allergens. Then, if they had visited the US recently, check for Alpha-gal Syndrome.
