Rape seed oil allergy warning

For any rapeseed oil allergy sufferers, spotted this on tesco grocery site -

The war in Ukraine has affected supplies of sunflower oil. To allow food products made with sunflower oil to remain on sale, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) have advised producers can replace sunflower oil with other vegetable oils, such as refined rapeseed oil, without changing labels.

The FSA/FSS have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are very rare.

We are changing our labels as quickly as possible but some foods products which usually contain sunflower oil may instead contain refined rapeseed oil.

Further advice is available on: FSA Advice on Sunflower Oil / FSS Advice on Sunflower Oil
