Allergens
An allergen-centric matrix that rolls up automatically from your ingredients — EU 1169/2011 compliant.
The Allergens page is a read-out, not a second place to type allergens. It shows which ingredients carry which allergens and which menu items are therefore affected.
How allergens flow#
- 1You tag allergens on ingredients (the source of truth).
- 2A product's effective allergens = the union of any direct declaration and everything inherited from its recipe ingredients.
- 3Composable products also pull allergens from the ingredients in their choice groups.
Heads up
Crubby never auto-overwrites a manual allergen declaration. Effective allergens are computed at read time as a union, so adding a manual tag can only add safety, never remove it. This is intentional under EU Regulation 1169/2011.
Using the matrix#
- See, per allergen, which ingredients carry it and which menu items are affected.
- Edit allergen tags from here — but remember you're editing the ingredient, which updates every product that uses it.
