• Fish
• Gluten
• Peanuts
• Shellfish
• Soy
• Sesame
• Tree Nuts
• Wheat
• Australia & New Zealand –FSANZ required all allergens
except sesame seeds be named on ingredient list in 2002.
Common Global Food Allergens
• European Union Directive on product labeling required manufacturers to identify
12 allergens and their derivatives including celery, mustard & sulphites in
November 2005.
• US in 2006 signed the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act
(FALCPA) requiring the eight top allergens declared on ingredient lists with gluten
standards to be defined in 2011.
• Canada is currently in the process of approving regulation for similar product
labeling for all 10 of the above allergens and their derivatives.

Gluten and Allergen-Free Consumer Attitudes
• Compulsive about
– Food safety
– Cross contamination
• Suspicious & limited trust in food industry
– Providing erroneous or misleading information
– Manufactures not providing useful information
– Consumer asking incorrect question
– Terminology – definition difference
• Can extrapolate information to an extreme
12. Copyright 2011 GlutenFree Passport® All Rights Reserved 12
Cross-Contamination as Serious Consideration
1. Small amounts cause reactions
2. A concern at every stage of food processing
3. Dedicated and co-packing plants may be able to
produce safe gluten-free products
Important Considerations:
• Raw materials handling
• Allergen Control policies and standard operating
procedures (SOPs)
• GMPs, cleaning procedures and HACCP in place
• Gluten testing
– In-plant testing vs. external testing?

GMP = Good Manufacturing Practices
SOP = Standards of Practice
HACCP = Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points. HACCP is an industry-wide effort approved by the scientific community as well as regulatory and industry practitioners. This effort is designed to focus specifically on food safety, including food safety in retail establishments.
The challenges are reduced cost w/o compromising safety and health.
You may wish to challenge the food scientists and nutritionists to address this product development arena.
