Poll: How often do you read product labels? ⭐️Every time even on things you buy often, 🩵when the packaging changes on something you buy often, 🏅or when you are checking a new product

Let’s celebrate that Gluten-free menus have become more common!

Gluten-free menus have become more common and that is awesome! Let's celebrate that! But there is something that often gets misunderstood: A Gluten-free menu is not always an allergy safe menu. Many Gluten-Free menu items can still contain any or all of the other Top 9 Major Food Allergens. Gluten-free menus often only highlight ingredients that contain gluten. Other allergens might not be listed at all, because they’re not the focus. Many times, nut flours are substitutes for wheat. Be sure to communicate with restaurants and ask questions.

Weigh In: Should someone cancel a date over a severe nut allergy?

A new year is the perfect time for new recipes and fresh goals 💚

At Christmas we celebrate love, faith, and caring for one another especially when we gather together at the table. ❤️🍴

Happy World Coconut Day! 🌴🥥 Did you know Coconut is not a Tree Nut? Botanically, coconut is a fruit, specifically a drupe like olives 🫒 and peaches 🍑. It doesn’t behave like almonds, cashews, or other tree nuts in terms of a tree nut allergy so the FDA in 2025 removed it from “tree nut list”. What this means is that coconut no longer will need the “contains: tree nut” warning label. Older labels might still list it so keep an eye out. Does this make you feel safer using coconut oils in cooking? Will reading baking labels be clearer and easier now? The FDA update confirms coconut is not a tree nut BUT if you have a nut allergy check with your doctor before introducing coconut into your diet! 🚫⛔️ #worldcoconutday #FDAupdate #coconut #allergyfriendly #nutfree
