CFIA-Undeclared Allergens in Multi-Ingredient Meat and Seafood Products with Grain-based Coatings - 2017-2018 ​The main objective of this survey was to obtain baseline information regarding the presence and levels of undeclared allergens in multi-ingredient meat and fish/shellfish products with a grain-based coating. Of 360 samples tested, 11 were found to contain undeclared allergens including egg, soy, and the milk protein beta-lactoglobulin (BLG). The most frequent positive results of the presence of undeclared allergens were in seafood products. 5 products tested positive for undeclared egg were deemed to represent a health risk and were recalled. 2022-04-13 Canadian Food Inspection Agency cfia.openagency-agenceouverte.acia@canada.ca Information and CommunicationsMeat products with grain-based coatingsSeafood products with grain-based coatingsAllergen CFIA-Undeclared Allergens in Multi-Ingredient Meat and Seafood Products with Grain-based Coatings - 2017-2018CSV https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/90c40158-bb81-4070-a275-fa03037a2ddb/resource/ecca691c-3395-4599-b9c3-1d415310b91e/download/cfia_acia-1178-v1-open_data_for_2017-2018_undeclared_allergens_and_gluten_in_imported_multi-ingr.csv
