Which ingredient would typically be included in a dairy allergen category?

The inclusion of milk in the dairy allergen category is based on the fact that milk is a primary dairy product derived from mammals, particularly cows, goats, and sheep. People who have a dairy allergy react to proteins found in milk, making it a significant allergen to consider in food preparation and labeling.

In contrast, almonds fall within the tree nut category, not dairy, while olive oil is derived from olives and is categorized as a plant oil. Honey, although a natural sweetener, is not derived from dairy products. Thus, milk is the only ingredient among the options provided that is explicitly recognized as a dairy product and a known source of allergens for those with dairy sensitivities.
