Re: Extension to Schema.org related to allergies

Eric - Phil's suggestion is a good place to start. With this kind of thing
we are wary of getting too detailed in schema.org without some evidence
that there's a reasonable chance of a consuming application using it.
Particularly in this kind of situation where there are various levels of
detail we might go into. The GS1 representation looks pretty thorough -
does it capture what you're looking for?
