"Add Sesame Seeds as an allergen to US Product labeling laws"

https://www.change.org/p/fda-add-sesame-seeds-as-an-allergen-to-us-product-labeling-laws


We're all thinking the same thing ... that it is time to label for sesame.

This isn't the petition that I personally am going to throw all of my energy into ... but I think soon all of us sesame folks will work together and they will have to stop ignoring us.

Nov 19, 2014 — Thanks to your help, we now have OVER 4,000 SIGNATURES on this petition to the FDA to require sesame disclosure on food labels. The petition also got the attention of the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI). They have now converted it into a more formal petition -- one to which the FDA IS LEGALLY REQUIRED TO REPLY!! Thank you CSPI!

Our petition is an exhibit to the CSPI's formal petition, so the more signatures we have, the more effective it will be. Let's break 5,000!

Very nice way to get around the "individual consumer" FDA comment issue.   :)
