Who should be more careful before buying — does the composition contain potential allergens? — Glazed Cookie with Peanut Filling CHIKAPIE CHIKALAB, 60 g - Bombbar

Yes, and this is an important point. CHIKAPIE contains peanuts (the filling) and milk chocolate — both components are among the common allergens. If you have a sensitivity to milk protein or an intolerance to nuts, it is worth studying the composition especially carefully before consuming it. According to the label, the product is not suitable in case of individual intolerance to milk protein and may also contain traces of almonds, hazelnuts, cashews, pistachios and walnuts.

Peanut is technically a legume, not a tree nut, but allergic reactions to it are common and can be pronounced. Milk protein (casein, whey) also often causes a reaction in people with the corresponding intolerance — as opposed to lactase deficiency, where the problem is precisely lactose.

If you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have chronic conditions, it is recommended to consult a specialist before introducing any new products into your diet. For everyone else it is enough to simply check the composition on the packaging: the manufacturer is required to list allergens in the labelling.
