QuoteToday, the U.S. House of Representatives unanimously passed the the Food Allergy Safety, Treatment, Education and Research (FASTER) Act of 2019 – H.R. 2117 – a bill with a number of food allergy measures, including making sesame an official top allergen. Studies show that sesame allergy affects as many as 1.5 million Americans, and is difficult to avoid. It often shows on food labels under vague terms like "spices" or "natural flavors".
