The number of people with a genuine food allergy is significant - it is now believed to be as many as 1-2% of adults and 5-8% of children - and for these the presence of allergens in food can be a real problem.
Avoidance of foods containing allergens is the only reliable way that the individuals affected can prevent an allergic reaction. Therefore, it is vital that these people can rely on the food industry to provide them with food that is safe for them to eat.
