Contains is an open-source tool that reads recipes or ingredient lists and outputs a Contains: statement for the nine major US allergens, with three possible verdicts: contains, does not contain, or needs verification.
The author claims that the off-the-shelf model they started with, faced with 85 hidden allergen samples, never output "uncertain".
The second test set constructed by the author contains 62 recipes, in which allergens are hidden in compound ingredients and never named; the file is frozen and a hash is recorded.
