Tahini and tahini halvah are sesame products, so anyone with a known allergy should read the label before buying or eating. Encyclopedic references note that sesame can trigger allergic reactions in some people and that reactions may be severe.

Check ingredient lists for sesame, tahini, sesame paste, and sesame oil. In halvah, tahini may be the main ingredient even when the product name highlights pistachio or chocolate.

Also review allergen statements for nuts or other ingredients according to the variety. Do not rely on pack colour or flavour name, and do not assume every product within one brand has identical ingredients.

This article is general awareness, not medical diagnosis. Follow a clinician’s advice for a confirmed allergy, read the latest physical label, and seek emergency care for severe symptoms.

Alrawdha produces tahini and halvah in Ajman under ISO 22000 and HACCP systems with clear product ingredient information. Encyclopedic source: Sesame.
