And yet food companies are adding minimal amounts of peanut oil or sesame flour to products, specifically so they don't have to guarantee that they are free of those allergens.
- blacksmith_tb 4y agoWell, those two aren't quite the same, otherwise they'd be adding them to EVERYTHING they make. I was reacting to the duplicity of claiming something was free of an ingredient that would never be present, where choosing to add an allergen because it's cheaper than paying to prove it isn't present is a perverse outcome of well-intentioned regulations + cut-throat corporations.
