In 2016, 15-year-old Natasha Ednan-Laperouse purchased a baguette from the Pret A Manger in Heathrow Airport. On her ensuing flight to Nice, she went into cardiac arrest after ingesting sesame seeds contained within in the sandwich but not listed amongst the ingredients. At the inquest into her death, the coroner called Pret’s allergen labelling “inadequate”.
