which of the following will destroy most food allergens? adeep frying bboiling cmicrowaving dcooking does not destroy allergens

The correct answer is that cooking, including deep frying, boiling, and microwaving, does not reliably destroy most food allergens. While cooking methods such as deep frying or boiling can denature or break down some proteins that cause allergic reactions, many allergens, especially those in peanuts, tree nuts, and shellfish, are heat-resistant and are not eliminated by cooking. Hence, cooking does not guarantee the destruction of allergens and cannot be relied upon to make allergenic foods safe for allergic individuals. Some people with certain milk and egg allergies may tolerate baked forms where proteins are partly altered, but this is a specific exception and not a rule for all allergens. The safest approach for people with food allergies is strict avoidance regardless of cooking method.
