The eight most common food allergens as identified by the FDA labeling law account for 90% of all reported food allergies. These include: egg, milk, fish, peanuts, crustacean shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
Food Allergy Warning:
Montana State University Food Service makes every attempt to identify the eight most common allergens in food items served in the residence dining halls. The residence hall kitchens, and the Fat Cat Bakery and Skinny Kitty Salads, however, are not allergen or gluten free. Every effort is made to safely prepare and serve foods, including those items with peanuts and tree nuts, but there is always a risk of cross contamination of allergens or gluten.
Additionally, ingredients and nutritional content may vary. Manufacturers may change their product formulation or consistency without our knowledge. While we make every effort to identify nutrition data and allergen information, we cannot assure against these contingencies. Additionally, product availability may fluctuate. Be sure to check the serving line for the posting of any last minute ingredient or recipe changes.
Please contact a food service manager and Nutritionist if you have any food allergies or sensitivities.
