Does soy preparation contain an allergen?
Yes. Soy preparation contains soy: labels in the US, the UK, Europe and the Gulf must declare it. It is made to a recipe, so any other allergen in it must be named on the label too.

An allergen is stated only when two of three checks agree: the Open Food Facts record, Bravoora’s label checker, and the ingredient’s own name or family (oat flour is oats, a cheese is milk). Every name where they disagree waits for a person to review it.
