What the petition asks
Food packaging can group ingredients into categories like "spices" not stating the ingredients can be deadly for those with allergies. I myself have been put at risk from lack of all ingredients being listed. The law should make it safe for all people to be able to eat without deadly consequences.
Food packaging can clearly label food allergens, however all ingredients can be an allergen to someone in the world. When you don't have a top allergen and then said allergen can be hidden in a group of ingredients it can lead to deadly anaphylatic shock and death. All ingredients used should be listed separately to stop allergic reactions. Mis-information of food labelling needs to stop and the food industry needs to be forced to be transparent of all ingredients used in the products.
