Allergies – Food Standards Agency Top 14

Food Standards Agency – Top 14 Allergens

The Food Standards Agency lists the top 14 allergens which catering establishments must be able to tell you about, in one way or another. Here is the link to the Food Standards Agency, as well as confirmation of the allergens which must be notified.  They are the most common only. If you suffer from an allergy outside of the Top 14 you should still ask for the recipe to be checked for you to stay safe. Here’s the link:
