An allergan section on the page to submit to cart #134

This would be on the cart view page and would be an optional field with a limited number of characters. The input here would be shown in the email that's sent to the volunteers.

Food manufacturers are required by law (see here) to provide allergens on the food ingredients. Is the issue for the user to provide a list of things they have allergic reactions to to the pantry so that the pantry filters the order for the user, or for the application to provide a list of common allergens present so that the user can make educated decisions and avoid things they are allergic to?

I believe we were leaning towards the former. I thought of it like the comment section you sometimes see on receipts for online orders at restaurants. A sort of special requests field.
