● Allergen Details
| What is celery?
Celery is a member of the carrot family. The stalk, root (celeriac), seeds, leaves, and oil are all used in cooking and as flavouring. Celery is one of the 14 mandatory allergens in the EU.
| Where is celery found?
Celery is in obvious places like soups, stocks, and salads, but also hides in stock cubes, sauces, ready meals, sausages, salami, mustard blends, spice mixes, and meat seasonings.
| Common symptoms of celery allergy
Reactions range from mild oral itching to swelling, hives, vomiting, breathing difficulty, and anaphylaxis. Heat does not destroy the allergen, so cooked celery is just as risky as raw.
| How Allervibe helps you avoid celery
