Closed petition Reform laws on listing of ingredients and allergens for alcoholic drinks

Closed on 7 July 2021

The Government should require that ingredients be listed on product labels, with allergens highlighted, and that all menus listing alcoholic drinks also include details of any allergens.

In the UK, an estimated 2 million people are living with a diagnosed food allergy, and many of these can experience severe reactions when exposed to allergens. Many people with allergies struggle to get information they need to make an informed choice of what they consume. This can create a great deal of anxiety. Allergic reactions can be fatal, so the rules on listing ingredients and allergens should be reformed to make this more accessible to consumers.
