Potential Warnings or Concerns

1. Allergen Risks:
   • Wheat allergy: Durum wheat is a gluten-containing grain, so this product is not suitable for people with celiac disease or severe wheat allergies unless labeled as gluten-free (which this barcode does not indicate).
   • Cross-contamination: Yu Foods’ facilities may process other allergens (e.g., soy, nuts), though the product itself is unlikely to contain them unless specified.
