GeraEats shows FSA hygiene ratings for every listed restaurant to help you make informed choices.
What is the difference between an Allergy Alert and a Product Recall?
An Allergy Alert (AA) means a product contains an undeclared allergen — it was not listed on the label and poses a direct risk to allergic consumers. A Product Recall (PRIN) covers broader food-safety issues (microbial contamination, physical hazards, chemical contamination) and may or may not involve allergens. For allergen-sensitive consumers, Allergy Alerts are the highest-priority class.
