1 THE NEW LAW FOOD INFORMATION FOR CONSUMERS THE FOOD STANDARDS AGENCY VIEW Sharon Gilmore FSA NI
2 Key facts ~1.92m people have food allergy in the UK (based on population of 63.1m). This figure excludes food intolerance. There is no cure, therefore need to observe avoidance Read ingredient labels Look out for hidden allergens DINING OUT: THE CHALLENGE FOR THOSE WITH A FOOD ALLERGY OR FOOD INTOLERANCE Northern Ireland
3 Essential elements of an allergy-safe dining experience:- Have information sheets or lists of allergens in products that the caterer buys in, 75% Discretion of the catering staff to avoid customer embarrassment, 33% General hygiene Flexibility, 13% standards, 63% Staff well informed about food allergy/ intolerance, 96% Notices on premises that invite dialogue, 41% Menu notice inviting dialogue, 62% Knowledge of potential for cross contamination, 83% Polite and helpful staff, 49% Direct contact with manager/chef, 61%
4 Reported caterer s reasons for service refusal:- Cross-contamination Ingredients Poor knowledge Litigation concerns Staff not trained in allergen controls, 16% Legal implications if something went wrong, 23% No time to deal with the request, 26% Reasons unspecified, 13% Unanswered, 3% Insufficient knowledge re food allergens, 29% Could not guarantee ingredients were allergen free, 81% Apathy Unknown if allergen cross contaminated other food, 13% Did not know if ingredients contained the allergen, 45% No allergen guarantee from ingredient suppliers, 23%
5 Summary The risks associated with dining out are a key issue. High level of anxiety and concern among the parents/ guardians of children with FAFI. Top food allergies were peanut, tree nut and egg. Kiwi allergy was relatively common. The risk of reaction outside the home is high. Cross-contamination and inadequate information. Food sensitivity consumers dine out just as frequently as their non-sensitive counterparts. Being refused service is par for the course. Flexibility on the part of the caterer is greatly appreciated.
