As of December 13th 2014 new food allergy labelling legislation went into
force across the EU. It requires food businesses to provide allergy
information on pre-packaged foods as well as food sold unpackaged, for
example in restaurants, deli counters, bakeries and sandwich bars. While
the change for food producers has been fairly straightforward, albeit
expensive, many restaurant owners are still looking for the least obtrusive
way of providing this information to clients.
