Common mistakes to avoid

- Do not buy allergy-sensitive food from an online listing that hides key label details.
- Do not assume the delivered package matches an old product image.
- Do not skip the physical package check after delivery.
- Do not use SafeChoice as legal advice for Finnish online sellers.
