Allergen warning

The Vulnerability Assessment Helper includes an allergen warning because any product that claims to be safe for people with food allergies is particularly vulnerable if an incident of adulteration or substitution occurs in its raw materials or ingredients.  An allergenic adulterant, such as a peanut flour can have deadly consequences for consumers with allergies.  Read more about peanut contamination of cumin here.
