I am not sure which is why I think its a confusing spot. From the article...
- "FDA officials indicated that allergen labeling is a “not a substitute” for preventing cross-contamination in factories."
- "some companies began adding small amounts of sesame..FDA officials said that violated the spirit, but not the letter, of federal regulations"
Hence my open ended question, how do you legally and with the spirit of the law not serve the allergy market? If you allergen labeling is not a substitute for preventing cross-contamination...what if I as a baker/factory don't care about cross contamination?
