Petition Make meat and poultry a mandatory allergen on food labelling

I am sick of spending hours reading through ingredients lists to check if a product contains meat or poultry, only to get to the elusive 'flavourings' and be left clueless. Hours must then be spent googling or emailing companies when a simple allergen warning would solve all these problems.

More details

Current allergens that must be listen include fish, crustaceans and molluscs and there is no reason at all that meat and poultry couldn't simply be included.

This will improve the consumer experience of vegetarians, vegans and people will allergens significantly.
