e.g. Although the substance is stated as “Peanut”, almond is the ingredient.

(Regarding sesame allergy, it is treated as the same substance as peanuts, which is known to have a high risk of cross-reaction, and is stated as “sesame is contained although it is said to contain peanuts” (those that are not reflected will be addressed as necessary).
