Reply to Sesame will join the major food allergens list on January 1, FDA says | CNN by YouAreNotMeLiar
People can be allergic to sesame? Man, that's rough, it's in so many foods!
Every time I hear of a new food allergy I'm thankful I don't have any. Bravo for labeling things to help keep folks safer out there.

I'm just thinking about how many different names it's got depending on how it's prepared and how many things use sesame oil as a flavoring. From the sounds of other folks in the thread, it can be as extreme of reaction as peanuts, and I'd never even heard of it being an issue until now. Food allergies are wild.
