Lecithin-Free Fast Food Finds Abroad: Your Dining Safety Net
Traveling with dietary restrictions like a lecithin allergy or sensitivity can turn menu browsing into a high-stakes puzzle—especially when language barriers muddy ingredient clarity. Lecithin (often derived from soy or eggs) hides in sauces, baked goods, and processed items worldwide. But with mm food, adventurers gain an instant ally for safe, stress-free dining.
Why Lecithin Poses a Challenge Abroad
Lecithin appears in surprising places: burger buns, mayonnaise, chocolate treats, and even fried coatings. While EU regulations require allergen labeling, standards vary globally. In Japan, soy lecithin is common in tempura batter; in Mexico, it might sneak into tortillas. Even "simple" dishes can harbor emulsifiers under unfamiliar names like "E322."
