sesame-free
Lacking those seeds
Sesame-free describes food or products that contain no sesame seeds, sesame oil, or sesame-derived ingredients.
The term appears on packaging and menus to help people with sesame allergies identify safe options: Is this hummus sesame-free?
Sesame became a major allergen requiring labeling in the United States in 2023.
