One type of Allergen Labeling is shown on the left.
Unfortunately about 12 million Americans have a food allergy. That is about 1 out of every 25 people in America according to the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network. Also of the 12 million Americans with food allergies, about 3 million are children. Emergency Rooms in the United States receive about 30,000 visits per year that deal with allergic reactions to food. Despite all the labels on foods that can cause life threatening reactions, the labels alone are not a solution and people should still carry an epinephrine autoinjector (EpiPen) when advised to do so by a doctor.
