That lazy allergens list. Besides shellfish, the only allergens not in "may contain" are actually in the ingredients.

Isn't "may contain" more about contamination from other things made in the same facility?

[–] yannic@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

Yes, that's the intention when used properly. When abused, it's a "cover your ass" statement.

I challenge these manufacturers to provide actual data supporting their claims that these allergens can be found near their production lines, or in the factories producing their ingredients.
