| + | == Objective == |
| + | |
| + | Analyze the list of product ingredients to establish whether: |
| + | * the product contains gluten |
| + | *the product may contain gluten |
| + | * the product does not contain gluten |
| + | |
| + | == Identification == |
| + | |
| + | Using 3 lists of ingredients (contains, possibly contains, and does not contain gluten), we can analyze the list of ingredients, and thus identify the presence of gluten in the products. |
| + | |
| + | Please note: the absence of gluten will only be possible for products where all the ingredients are present in the “does not contain lactose” list. |
| + | |
| + | * Ingredients containing gluten |
| + | * Ingredients possibly containing gluten |
| + | * Ingredients not containing gluten |
| + | |
| + | In order to first sort the ingredients most present in the products, you can look at the [http://world.openfoodfacts.org/ingredients list of all ingredients] and sort it by number of products. |
| + | |
| + | == Uses == |
| + | |
| + | === Indication of the presence or non-presence of gluten === |
| + | |
| + | In the product sheets on the site and on the mobile applications. |
| + | |
| + | === Search === |
| + | |
| + | Look for products without, with, or possibly containing gluten. |
| + | |
| + | == Notes == |
| + | |
| + | == Additional ideas == |
| + | * Improve support for cross-contamination with a knowledge panel giving the factory status, in addition to the ingredient detection. Eg: "Gluten-free from ingredients. Mention that the factory handles gluten." or: "Gluten-free certified. Verified gluten free from ingredients" |
