Special Notes:
- Under the Food Allergen Labeling And Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA), molluscan shellfish (such as oysters, clams, mussels, mollusks, scallops, snail, squid, or octopus) is not a major allergen. Therefore, we do not label molluscan shellfish as a shellfish allergen at ISU Dining, only crustacean shellfish.
- For coconut, while the FDA recognizes it was a “tree nut,” the specific coconut allergen protein is not the same as tree nuts. Biologically, a coconut is not considered a tree nut by the ACAAI (https://acaai.org/allergies/types/food-allergies/types-food-allergy/tree-nut-allergy). Therefore, we do not label coconut as a tree nut at ISU Dining.
