Reading Labels -- Traces, Machinery, Facilities

[Guest guest]

I'm curious as to how you all deal with ingredient labels that say

something may contain traces of something, is shared with the same

machinery as something, or is processed in the same facility as

something.

 

Do you run for the hills? Find it is usually safe (the lawyers just

want the company to protect itself)? Or does it vary (sometimes you

react, sometimes you don't)?

 

Does it make a difference if you are talking about gluten or something

else where you have a sensitivity, but not an allergy?

I will usually go ahead and eat them. I am gluten intolerant, though. I don't

have Celiac's. Therefore the only risk for me is a belly ache. I have not had

any problems with such foods.
