Health notes
Submarine dressing is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is typically made from common food ingredients like oil, vinegar, and spices, which have been widely consumed for centuries. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not specifically evaluated 'submarine dressing' as a single entity, but its components are generally considered safe. High sodium content can be a concern in some commercially prepared dressings, aligning with the FDA's Daily Value recommendation of no more than 2,300 mg per day.
Allergen info
Submarine dressing is not typically a major allergen. However, some formulations may contain ingredients derived from wheat (like malt vinegar) or soy (soybean oil), which are major allergens. Check the product label for specific allergen information. Gluten may be present if wheat-derived ingredients are used.
