12 May 2016 --- An unobtrusive stick-on patch called the Soba Allergy Tattoo has been developed to detect the allergy and therefore prevent harm.
One of the most common food allergies in Japan is soba. About 0.03 percent of people are allergic to the buckwheat noodle according to Hokkaido’s Soba Association. As it is one of the most common allergies in Japan, similar to the prevalence of peanut allergies in North America, information and knowledge about the allergy is found throughout the country.
Thankfully none of the tourists that tried out the tattoos were allergic and were able to enjoy eating their soba.
