Lesson Overview

20.8 – Allergen and Intolerance Awareness: Food allergies and intolerances affect many people, and learning to read labels for hidden triggers helps keep meals safe and stress-free. Common allergens like peanuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat, and shellfish must legally be listed, often in bold or near a special highlights section. People with gluten sensitivity or dairy intolerance must pay close attention to how foods are processed because cross-contamination can cause reactions even if the allergen isn’t a main ingredient. Recognizing terms like “may contain,” “processed in a facility with,” or “manufactured on shared equipment” allows you to protect yourself or someone you care about. Reading labels with allergies in mind builds confidence when trying new foods and makes grocery shopping feel less overwhelming. This awareness supports safer snacking at school, work, or social events where choices might be more limited. When everyone at the table feels included and secure, mealtime becomes more relaxing and enjoyable for all.
