Food recalls due to cross-contamination of allergens or incorrect allergen labelling are an expensive problem for the food industry, and dangerous for food-allergic consumers. It is crucial that the food industry understands how to manage allergens in the correct way; consumers are relying on the food industry to provide them with safe food suitable for what could be a potentially life-threatening allergy.
Leatherhead Food Research is pleased to publish the proceedings of its highly successful Food Chain Allergen Management conference, held in May 2009. The event included presentations on the Standards available to enable businesses to manage allergens in the food chain, as well as examples of allergy recalls and contamination issues, a discussion on threshold levels for food allergens, and the view from Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury’s, Tesco and Waitrose on allergens and the systems that they use to deal with allergen issues.
The publication also features an Introduction from David Highton of the British Standards Institute, and a Foreword by David Reading, Founder of the Anaphylaxis Campaign. An ideal supplement to any allergen-management programme.
This book is an invaluable reference resource for all those involved in ingredients and process management, and HACCP implementation in the food industry.
