食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)美國食品安全新聞網(wǎng)消息,4月14日美國公共廉政中心(CPI)發(fā)布調(diào)查報告指出,羽扇豆會導(dǎo)致過敏反應(yīng),然而食品標(biāo)簽缺少警告標(biāo)識。
報道稱,由于花生屬于美國規(guī)定的必須強制標(biāo)注的致敏原,因此食品企業(yè)使用羽扇豆作為花生的替代品。
然而根據(jù)相關(guān)規(guī)定,羽扇豆屬于“一般認(rèn)為安全”的物質(zhì),無需強制標(biāo)注在過敏原標(biāo)簽中。
部分原文報道如下:
The Center for Public Integrity (CPI) published a lengthy investigative report on Tuesday summarizing the safety concerns associated with GRAS (generally recognized as safe) food additives, the controversies surrounding how they're determined, and barriers to regulating them.
The report's key illustration of the concerns about GRAS was a peanut-related legume called lupin - sometimes spelled “lupine” - which is relatively new to the U.S. market and frequently used in gluten-free products.
