allergen warnings
Food sensitivity notices
Allergen warnings are notices on food packaging or menus identifying ingredients that commonly cause allergic reactions—peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, wheat, soy, shellfish, and others.
Required by law in many countries, they alert sensitive individuals to potential dangers: Check the allergen warnings before ordering.
Restaurants often include them on menus or provide them on request.
