Food Safety & Allergy Warnings

Allergies Are Serious

If anyone in your family has food allergies—even mild ones—you’re responsible for reading ingredient labels carefully. Recipes can be modified, but you’re the expert on your family’s needs.

Cross-contamination in your kitchen is your responsibility. Shared utensils, cutting boards, and cookware can transfer allergens. For official food safety guidelines, you can visit the CDC website.

If your family has severe allergies, please:

Read every ingredient label
Contact manufacturers if unsure about ingredients
Consult your healthcare provider or registered dietitian
Never rely solely on our recipes without verification

Common Allergens we sometimes use (peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, eggs, soy, wheat, sesame) appear in recipe labels when present. But always verify by reading ingredient labels yourself.

You can learn more about safe cooking and allergy practices through the FDA’s food resources.

Medical Conditions & Dietary Restrictions

If your family has a medical condition affecting diet—diabetes, celiac disease, kidney disease, heart disease, autoimmune conditions, eating disorders, or any other health issue—please consult a registered dietitian or your doctor before using our recipes.

For evidence-based nutrition information, you may refer to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

Our recipes are designed for generally healthy families. Medical conditions require professional guidance, not blog recipes.

The disclaimer of NumNum Recipes clarifies that we are not medical professionals or registered dietitians.

Nutritional Information Disclaimer

The nutritional information provided with recipes (calories, carbohydrates, protein, etc.) is:

Calculated using standard USDA food databases
Approximate and not guaranteed to be 100% accurate
Affected by brand differences, ingredient substitutions, and preparation methods
Not suitable for medical nutrition therapy or precise macro tracking

Don’t rely on our nutritional info if you:

Have diabetes or blood sugar management needs
Are tracking macros for medical reasons
Have kidney disease or other conditions requiring precise nutrient intake
Need specific sodium, potassium, or other nutrient restrictions

A registered dietitian can provide accurate nutritional analysis for medical purposes.

Allergy & Dietary Restriction Modifications

We sometimes suggest modifications for common allergies or dietary restrictions (dairy-free, nut-free, gluten-free options, etc.). These suggestions are general guidance, not professional advice.

Please:

Research any substitution thoroughly
Verify that the substitution is safe for your specific situation
Test recipes with dietary modifications before serving to someone with a serious allergy or condition
Consult a registered dietitian about complex dietary needs

We’re not responsible for outcomes if modifications don’t work for your situation.

Please read the disclaimer of NumNum Recipes carefully before relying on our recipes or nutritional information.”

No Professional Relationship

Reading our recipes or articles does not create a doctor-patient, dietitian-client, or professional-client relationship. We’re not treating you, diagnosing you, or providing personalized health recommendations.

If you have health concerns, see a qualified healthcare provider. If you have specific dietary needs, consult a registered dietitian.

Results Not Guaranteed

Our recipes are based on our testing and experience, but:

Your results may vary based on kitchen conditions, ingredient brands, and cooking experience
“Easy” is relative—what’s easy for one family might be challenging for another
Kids’ taste preferences vary wildly
Nutritional outcomes depend on accurate portion sizes and ingredient choices

We stand behind our testing, but we can’t guarantee specific results in your unique kitchen.

Kitchen Safety & Common Sense

You’re Responsible For:

Using knives and cooking equipment safely
Following food safety practices (hand washing, proper storage, cooking temperatures)
Supervising children appropriately based on their age and skill level
Being aware of hot surfaces, sharp objects, and potential hazards
Following recipe instructions and not skipping safety-related steps

NumNum Recipes is not responsible for kitchen accidents, burns, cuts, or injuries. Common sense and supervision are your responsibility.

Content Accuracy & Updates

We make genuine efforts to:

Provide accurate recipes based on our testing
Use current nutritional information
Update recipes when we discover improvements or corrections
Cite sources for health and nutrition claims
Correct errors when we discover them

However:

We’re not perfect—errors happen
We don’t have the resources to fact-check every scientific claim in real-time
Information about nutrition and health evolves, and we don’t always catch updates immediately
If you find an error, please email us at [email protected] so we can fix it

We add update notes to recipes when significant changes are made so you know what’s changed.

Third-Party Links & External Content

NumNum Recipes links to other websites for research, product recommendations, and resources. We’re not endorsing everything about those sites—just specific content we find helpful.

We’re not responsible for:

Content on external websites
Products sold by third parties
Their privacy policies or terms of service
Affiliate links leading to unexpected content

When you click a link to another site, you’re leaving NumNum Recipes and entering their terms. Read their policies.

Affiliate Disclosures

We sometimes include affiliate links to products we genuinely recommend. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Products we’ve actually used or vetted
Items that align with our values (real food, family-friendly, etc.)
Things we’d genuinely recommend to friends

Affiliate relationships never change our honest opinions. If something doesn’t work, we’ll tell you—commission or not.
