We have friends coming to town and their daughter is allergic to dairy. I feel stupid asking this, but we've made a cake and brownies(with eggs, but no milk stuff). Can we let her have them?

And it is conceivable to us that eggs have as much relevance to the origin of the word dairy as butter does.
the word dairy only has to do with milk and cream and related products: sour cream, butter, cheese, yogurt, etc. You may often find eggs and dairy categorized together (several Ochef directory pages lump them together, for example), but they remain as distinct as the species from which they come.

Eggs and dairy are ALWAYS in separate categories if you take a look around, also!

You need to specifically ask those friends. Since you're not mind-readers, it's only right that you should ask whether she's allergic to eggs. Eggs are not dairy, although you find them in the dairy case at most grocer's...

Since "dairy" is just another word for "cow's milk," anything made from cow's milk counts as dairy. Eggs have nothing to do with cows milk, so that shouldn't be a problem

Eggs are not considered a dairy product since today's dairy products are such things such as milk, cheeses, and yogurt. Eggs today are considered more as a meat product since it is a main source of protein and is a part of the living chicken (the unfertalized egg).

Bakery glazes
Breath mints
Coffee whiteners
Fortified cereals
High-protein beverage powders
Ice cream
Infant formulas
Nutrition bars
Processed meats
Salad dressings
Whipped toppings
Lactose and casein found in many processed foods
The problem is that lactose, one of the primary sugars in cow's milk, and casein, one of the primary proteins in cow's milk, are both added to a wide variety of foods; lactose is added for flavor while casein is often added for emulsification, texture and protein supplementation.
Therefore, the only way to tell for sure whether it is added to a food product is to read the food label.
