The balancing act of
allergen labelling: The food industry has a responsibility to
label allergenic ingredients as big and bold as they can — but also not to over-egg the slimmest of slim possibilities that a
trace amount of an
allergen may have slipped into a product.

traces of
allergens that accidentally find their way into foods are not currently regulated.

trace amounts of
allergens that are known to cause a reaction in the food allergic individuals.»
