I think it is ignorance.
Affluent areas in general have more variety. The ice cream shop may be a place where you can get all kinds of ingredients that you wouldn't find at other places. This is 100% true for "fine dining" and it's one reason why they ask.
They will also have substitutes for an allergy to make the experience just as pleasant, thus they ask.

No, it's definitely a difference in cultural norms, not something driven by the store inventory. > They will also have substitutes for an allergy to make the experience just as pleasant This is not the case for dairy in an ice cream shop, or for wheat in a "whole wheat bakery".
- morshu9001 1y agoYeah I don't even know why this is a thing, could be lawsuits for all I know, but it's not about the menu.
- array_key_first 1y agoMany ice cream shops literally have dairy free ice cream. Ben and jerrys famously has dairy free ice cream.
- zdragnar 1y agoDo they ask every single customer if dairy is okay? Because that was the original point... not that the ice cream shop also offered non-dairy versions.
- morshu9001 1y agoThey don't. Well maybe in that part of town they do, haven't tried.
