The American Celiac Disease Alliance recently received a copy of FDA's report to Congress regarding
cross-contact with food allergens during food manufacture and distribution, and consumer preferences
about advisory labeling.  The report was required as part of the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer
Protection Act (FALCPA).  

The report is now online at:   
http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~acrobat/alrgrep.pdf

The FDA has also updated its question and answers on FALCPA for consumers.  

The Information for Consumers: Food Allergen Labeling And Consumer Protection Act of 2004 Questions
and Answers can be accessed by going to:

FDA's final guidance for industry was posted in April, that information is available at:
http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/alrguid3.html


We greatly appreciate the efforts of the FDA / CFSAN staff to keep us informed about its FALCPA related
activities.
