What it can cause

For people with a food allergy, even a small amount can trigger a reaction — from hives and swelling to anaphylaxis, which is life-threatening.

What to do

If you are allergic to the undeclared ingredient, do not eat the product. Other consumers are not at risk from the allergen itself.

General information only — not medical advice. If you have worrying symptoms, contact a doctor or call 112.
