Contamination & AllergensQuestion 74 of 320
Which of the following pairs an allergen with a common hidden source correctly?
a.Eggs -- found only in whole boiled eggs
b.Soy -- found in many sauces, dressings, and processed foods
c.Fish -- never used in sauces
d.Peanuts -- only found in raw peanuts
Explanation
Soy is a hidden allergen in many sauces, dressings, marinades, and processed foods, so staff must read labels. Eggs also hide in mayonnaise, baked goods, and batters, fish (as anchovies) appears in sauces like Worcestershire and Caesar dressing, and peanuts appear in oils, sauces, and desserts, so the other statements are false.
