Sesame was recently added to the burger buns at In-N-Out Burger. There are over 1.5 million Americans with a sesame allergy. The President of In-N-Out Burger recently wrote on Instagram that it was not a big deal. Here is why that is not correct. #food #allergies #doctor

I have an allergy to celery and intolerance to many spices, and nitrates. Celery is in almost everything. If it says Spice or Spices or natural flavoring, it's likely in there. Why don't they list it separately? Vegetable broth isn't an ingredient, it's a list of ingredients. This has been extremely difficult to navigate.

If it says to ensure if there's any sesame it's labeled, how does purposely adding sesame help with that? Why can't they leave them where they are and say may contain traces of sesame? That's what they do in Canada, more so for wheat though. It can be gluten-safe certified, and they still write "may contain wheat."

Wowwww. I hope the plaintiff's attorney in the inevitable lawsuit finds that comment!
But moreso I hope people with severe sesame allergies are made aware that isn't safe for them, thus avoiding any medical emergencies or worse.

Is it just me, or are these weird and nasty food allergies MUCH more common than they used to be? I'm part of the Goonies generation, and I don't recall having any friends or classmates with peanut or sesame allergies.

She isn't entirely wrong though.

Jeanne Marrazzo, NIAID's director, said the study "turns our traditional thinking about food allergy on its head."

"Traditionally, all of our intervention has been built on avoidance – don't let your kid go near peanuts if there's any sign, " of potential allergy, " Marrazzo said.

But she said the new research is a "game changer" because it demonstrates children can build protection from peanut allergy if they consume peanut products from 4 to 6 months through age 5.

So wouldn't this also be the same with most other products? Small amounts?
