The Food and Drink Federation (FDF) has released updated UK guidance on allergen-free and vegan claims. The guide clarifies the differences between the two claims and aims to educate both consumers and the food industry. While the allergen-free claim provides food safety information, the vegan claim doesn’t necessarily mean a product is safe for allergic consumers. The document covers current legal frameworks governing the use of these claims and potential future developments.
