Coeliac, gluten-free and wheat-free
Farefully treats these as separate planning needs. Coeliac and gluten-free rules also consider gluten sources beyond wheat. Wheat-free specifically removes known wheat sources and applies suitable substitutions where the recipe system supports them.
Allergens
The planner can filter against common allergen metadata, but packaged foods vary by brand and formulation. A recipe passing Farefully's filter does not remove the need to check the product's own allergen statement.
Halal planning
Halal mode is a planning aid, not religious certification. Pork ingredients are excluded and meat-product checks are surfaced where relevant. Verify Halal certification for the exact product you buy.
Hard exclusions
Foods marked Never suggest are treated as hard exclusions in generated plans and swaps. “Not keen” is different: it tells Farefully to strongly deprioritise something rather than treating it as a safety rule.
Medical dietary needs
For diagnosed allergies, Coeliac disease or other medical dietary requirements, follow advice from your healthcare professional and verify products independently before buying or eating them.
