Overview of FDA Guidelines

Read through this short section for a better understanding of which foods are recognized by the FDA as major allergens.

Federal regulations have identified nine major food allergens: eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soybeans, tree nuts, and wheat.

Highly refined oils, even if derived from one of the major food allergen groups, are exempted from federal regulations. Refined soybean oil, for example, is not considered a common allergen.

Restaurants and food manufacturers may prepare or cook foods using shared equipment.

Fried foods, for example, are often cooked in common oil and a shared fryer that may also be used to cook fish and foods made with wheat, milk, or other allergens.

Because of the shared space, tools, and ingredients, there is a chance that any food may contain trace amounts of allergens due to risk of cross contamination.
