Kev Ceeb Toom Txog Allergen: Kev sau daim ntawv lo kom raug, kev tsim khoom zoo tuaj yeem pab cov neeg ua khoom kom tsis txhob muaj teeb meem

Drew McDonald paub txog qhov tseem ceeb ntawm kev ua kom raug hauv kev sau cov tshuaj ua xua hauv cov khoom noj zoo heev.

Tus lwm thawj coj ntawm qhov zoo, kev nyab xeeb zaub mov thiab kev tswj hwm ntawm Cov Kwv Tij Hauv Pawg Ntseeg Tsim Khoom nyob rau hauv Salinas, California, muaj ib tug ntxhais 10 xyoo uas ua xua rau txiv laum huab xeeb.

"Nws ua tsis tau pa," nws hais. "Nws yog ib qho kev tsis haum tshuaj heev. Zoo hmoo, nws tsuas yog tshwm sim ib zaug xwb."

Tiamsis qhov ntawd txhais tau tias nws thiab nws tus poj niam, uas yog ib tug kws tshawb fawb txog zaub mov, nug cov lus nug thaum lawv mus rau hauv cov khw noj mov. Thiab lawv nyeem cov ntawv lo rau zaub mov, uas yog Food and Drug Administration yuav tsum tau teev meej meej rau hauv cov lus yooj yim txhua yam khoom xyaw - lossis txhua yam protein uas tau los ntawm - "yim loj" uas yog lub luag haujlwm rau 90 feem pua ​​​​​​ntawm Tebchaws Meskas khoom noj khoom haus kev ua xua: mis nyuj, qe, ntses, crustacean shellfish, txiv ntoo txiv ntoo, nplej, txiv laum huab xeeb thiab taum pauv.

"Nyob rau hauv lub Kev Sau Npe Khoom Noj Khoom Haus thiab Txoj Cai Tiv Thaiv Cov Neeg Siv Khoom Xyoo 2004, cov khoom noj ntawd yuav tsum tau teev nyob rau ntawm daim ntawv lo ntawm cov khoom noj uas tau ntim, "tus kws tshaj lij ntawm FDA Douglas Karas tau hais.

Raws li McDonald hais, cov ntawv lo nrog cov khoom xyaw sau tseg - txhawb nqa los ntawm kev coj ua zoo - yog qhov tseem ceeb rau cov neeg zoo li nws tus ntxhais.

"Lub hom phiaj tsis yog kom tsis txhob muaj cov khoom ua xua," nws hais. "Lub hom phiaj yog kom paub tseeb tias peb ua txhua yam los pab cov neeg siv khoom ua xua kom paub txog cov khoom noj lossis cov khoom xyaw uas ua rau lawv tsis haum kom lawv thiaj li zam tau."

Tsis tas li ntawd, tus Txoj Cai Lij Choj Txog Kev Nyab Xeeb Khoom Noj Khoom Haus hu kom cov tuam txhab muaj kev tswj hwm tiv thaiv cov khoom ua xua. Ua ke nrog qhov ntawd, FDA txoj cai tswj hwm kev tiv thaiv zaub mov rau tib neeg uas tam sim no tsis tau muab rau pej xeem tawm tswv yim yuav xav kom kev tshuaj xyuas qhov txaus ntshai ntawm qhov chaw uas tuav cov khoom ua xua zaub mov daws qhov teeb meem seb lawv puas muaj kev phom sij loj.

"Yog tias yog li ntawd, yuav tsum tau siv cov kev tswj hwm kev tiv thaiv kev ua xua kom tiv thaiv kev sib cuag ntawm cov khoom noj ua xua thiab xyuas kom meej tias txhua yam ua xua tau muab sau rau hauv daim ntawv lo," Karas hais.

Cov teeb meem hauv Fresh-Cut

Steve Taylor, ib tug xibfwb nyob rau hauv Department of Food Science and Technology thiab yog tus thawj coj ntawm kev lag luam zaub mov uas tau txais nyiaj los ntawm kev lag luam. Kev Tshawb Fawb Txog Kev Ua Xua Zaub Mov thiab Kev Pabcuam nyob rau ntawm University of Nebraska-Lincoln, tau hais tias kev daws teeb meem nrog cov khoom ua xua yog qhov tshiab rau ntu fresh-cut piv rau kev lag luam ua zaub mov tag nrho vim tias lub tswv yim ntawm cov khoom siv zaub xam lav thiab cov khoom noj txom ncauj tsuas yog tshwm sim hauv ob peb xyoos dhau los.

"Lub Koom Haum Tshawb Fawb Txog Kev Ua Xua Khoom Noj thiab Kev Pab Cuam ... muaj ntau tshaj 80 lub tuam txhab koom tes," nws hais. "Feem ntau ntawm cov tuam txhab loj uas koj yuav pom lawv cov npe ntawm lub khw muag khoom noj yog cov koom nrog ... tsis yog cov lag luam txiav tshiab vim kuv xav tias qhov teeb meem no tshiab dua rau lawv."

Thiab tsis yog txhua yim yam ua xua uas tau txheeb xyuas yog teeb meem hauv kev ua haujlwm txiav tshiab.

"Kuv xav tias daim ntawv teev cov khoom ua xua uas cuam tshuam tshaj plaws rau cov khoom txiav tshiab yuav yog ib qho ntawm cov chaw tseem ceeb thiab ntau qhov chaw me, tab sis mis nyuj, txiv ntoo, gluten, nplej, txiv laum huab xeeb thiab tej zaum, qe, yuav yog feem ntau," Trevor Suslow, tus kws tshawb fawb txuas ntxiv ntawm University of California, Davis hais. Nws qhia txog cov ncauj lus uas suav nrog cov teeb meem ntawm kev muaj cov khoom ua xua txhob txwm thiab tsis txhob txwm nyob hauv cov zaub xam lav txiav tshiab thiab ntim khoom thiab cov khoom noj uas muaj nqis ntxiv, uas nws tau tsim cov lus nthuav qhia PowerPoint ntxaws ntxaws.

Suslow hais tias, "Cov neeg ua khoom noj tshiab yuav tsum muaj daim ntawv tshaj tawm/daim ntawv lo thiab daim phiaj xwm tiv thaiv kev ua qias tuaj uas suav nrog lawv cov neeg muag khoom thiab cov haujlwm tswj hwm hauv tsev."

Feem ntau, Taylor hais tias, cov teeb meem feem ntau tshwm sim nrog txiv laum huab xeeb, txiv ntoo thiab mis nyuj.

"Mis nyuj tshwm sim vim nws yog ib yam khoom xyaw uas muaj nyob txhua qhov chaw," nws hais. "Txiv laum huab xeeb thiab txiv ntoo yog cov khoom ua xua muaj zog heev; tib neeg feem ntau teb rau cov koob tshuaj me me, yog li nws tsis yog qhov yuam kev loj heev ua ntej ib tus neeg mob."

Tej yam yuam kev yog tej yam ua rau muaj kev rov qab hu cov khoom ua xua, yog vim li cas cov phiaj xwm tswj hwm sab hauv yuav tsum suav nrog kev xyuas kom meej tias daim ntawv lo raug muab tso rau ntawm cov khoom raug.

"Kev lag luam tau ua thiab yeej ua tau 99.9 feem pua ​​​​​​yog," Taylor hais. "Tab sis txhua zaus lawv ua yuam kev, lawv muaj ntau yam allergen uas tsis tau tshaj tawm hauv pob khoom tsis raug, yog li nws ib txwm ua rau muaj kev hu rov qab.

Yog koj muab cov zaub xam lav uas muaj txiv ntoo walnut tso rau hauv lub thawv zaub xam lav almond, koj yuav muaj teeb meem. Yog koj muab cov zaub xam lav txiv ntoo walnut tso rau hauv lub thawv uas tsis muaj cov tshuaj ua xua rau hauv, koj yuav muaj teeb meem loj dua.

Cov kev coj ua zoo

Txawm hais tias Church Brothers tsis tau tsim cov khoom siv ua zaub xam lav tam sim no, lub tuam txhab tau ua yav dhau los thiab McDonald kuj tau ua haujlwm rau lwm tus uas ua. Nws hais tias hom khoom thiab ntim khoom ua rau muaj qhov sib txawv hauv kev tuav thaum nws los txog rau cov khoom ua xua.

Cov khoom siv uas muaj cov zaub nrog lub hnab lossis pob khoom sib cais uas tsim los ntawm lwm lub chaw tsim khoom nrog cov kua ntses uas yuav muaj mis nyuj lossis qe, lossis croutons yooj yim dua rau kev hais txog.

"Xav txog kev sau daim ntawv lo - rau cov neeg siv khoom muag, qhov no yuav tsum tau tshaj tawm, tau kawg, thiab rau cov neeg siv khoom noj khoom haus (tsis tshua muaj), nws yuav tsum tau ua kom meej meej hauv cov lus qhia khoom," nws hais. "Qhov teeb meem yog xyuas kom meej tias koj tus neeg muag khoom tau txheeb xyuas cov khoom xyaw kom meej meej.

(Txawm hais tias cov khoom no) nyob rau hauv ib lub pob sib cais, nws yog ib qho kev txiav txim siab zoo kom khaws cia cais ntawm lwm cov khoom xyaw ntawm cov khoom cog qoob loo.

Yog tias cov khoom siv tau sib sau ua ke rau tib kab li cov khoom uas tsis muaj cov khoom xyaw, cov tuam txhab yuav tsum muaj ib kauj ruam sib cais uas cuam tshuam nrog kev yaug lossis ntxuav cov khoom siv ntawm kev khiav.

"Ib qho kev coj ua zoo tshaj plaws yog kev lees paub tias (kauj ruam sib cais) muaj txiaj ntsig zoo rau kev daws cov hmoov av seem ntawm lub chaw tsim khoom," McDonald hais. "Hauv ntau qhov xwm txheej, cov khoom xyaw pob tau qhia rau ntawm kauj ruam kawg ntawm kev ntim khoom yog li qhov chaw tswj hwm feem ntau raug cais tawm."

Thaum xav txog qhov ua tau tias cov khoom xyaw yuav tawg, cov tuam txhab kuj yuav tsum muaj cov txheej txheem tiv thaiv lossis tswj kev nchuav los daws qhov kev nchuav, kev ntxuav, kev pov tseg cov khoom tsim tawm thiab kev txhim kho cov txheej txheem.

Thaum cov neeg ua khoom noj ntxiv cov khoom xyaw uas muaj cov tshuaj ua xua rau cov khoom, nws yuav nyuaj dua. Hauv qhov no, kev sib cais thaum lub sijhawm khaws cia, kev tswj hwm kev sib kis kab mob nrog lwm cov kab thiab cov khoom siv, thiab cov txheej txheem uas daws cov cua thiab cov teeb meem cuam tshuam yog qhov tseem ceeb.

McDonald hais tias, "Cov chaw uas muaj cov khoom xyaw ua rau ua xua yuav tsum muaj ib qho kev pab cuam dav dav uas tsom mus rau kev sib cais thiab tswj cov khoom xyaw no."

At Sab Hnub Tuaj Tshiab Hauv Savage, Maryland, muaj ib txoj kev npaj tswj cov allergen nruj heev. Raws li Tus Thawj Saib Xyuas Kev Ua Haujlwm Zoo Bhavini Patel, cov khoom suav nrog kev xyuas kom meej tias tsis muaj cov allergen raug ua tiav hauv pem teb ntau lawm; hloov chaw, lawv raug ua tiav hauv ib chav sib cais. Cov dips yuav tsum nyob hauv cov thawv kaw kom siv tau rau hauv cov tais thiab cov khoom siv. Tsis tas li ntawd, cov allergens tsuas yog tuaj yeem tuav tau thaum kawg ntawm kev ua haujlwm, tom qab ntawd thaj chaw ntau lawm raug ntxuav kom huv si.

Taylor tawm tswv yim siv cov txheej txheem sim los nrhiav cov khoom seem.

"Qee cov yog cov kab ntsuas sab nraud uas ua haujlwm zoo li kev kuaj cev xeeb tub," nws hais. "Yog tias koj tau txais ib kab uas txhais tau tias kev kuaj ua haujlwm, ob kab txhais tau tias koj muaj cov allergen uas koj tsis xav kom muaj nyob rau ntawm qhov chaw ntawm cov khoom siv no, yog li koj tuaj yeem sim qhov ua tau zoo ntawm kev ntxuav hauv ob peb feeb."

Kev Raug Mob Tsis Tau Ua Ntej

Kev sib cuag tuaj yeem tshwm sim thaum cov khoom noj uas ua rau ua xua lossis muaj me ntsis sib xyaw nrog lwm yam khoom noj uas tsis yog los muaj nws. Raws li McDonald, FDA hais tias cov lus qhia xws li "tsim khoom hauv qhov chaw uas kuj siv (ntxig cov khoom ua xua)" yuav tsum tsis yog qhov hloov pauv rau kev ua raws li cov qauv tsim khoom zoo.

"Raws li FDA, lawv tab tom xav txog txoj hauv kev los tswj kev siv cov lus hais no los ntawm cov tuam txhab tsim khoom kom qhia cov neeg siv khoom zoo dua," nws hais.

Rau McDonald's, nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb uas yuav tsum nco ntsoov tias nws tsis yog qhov nyuaj.

"Yuav tsum tau hais tias nws nyob ntawd los tsis nyob ntawd," McDonald hais. "Rau cov khoom uas muaj cov khoom xyaw zaub xam lav sib cais nrog cov khoom ua xua hauv, nws yuav tsum tau tshaj tawm.

Rau cov khoom uas tsis ua li ntawd, cov txheej txheem thiab cov txheej txheem yuav tsum tau ua thiab ua tiav hauv txoj kev uas tso cai rau kev tshaj tawm cov ntawv lo ntawm cov khoom tsis ua xua.
