Coffee. It's the fuel that gets many of us going each day. But for those with allergies, that comforting cup can sometimes come with a side of anxiety. Here at Coffee Beanery, we understand the importance of inclusivity, which is why we're proud to offer bagged coffee that's free of the top 8 allergens!
The Top 8 Allergens: Understanding What You Need to Avoid
The top 8 allergens are a group of foods designated by the FDA as causing the most severe allergic reactions. These eight foods account for roughly 90% of all food allergies. Here's a breakdown:
- Milk (including dairy products like cheese, yogurt, and butter)
- Eggs
- Peanuts
- Tree Nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, cashews, etc.)
- Soy (including soy milk, tofu, and edamame)
- Wheat (including all wheat products like bread, pasta, and cereals)
- Shellfish (shrimp, crab, lobster, etc.)
- Fish (salmon, tuna, cod, etc.)
