Allergens ‘may contain’ ?

May contain usually means it's made in the same factory that uses the other product so may have come into the contact with but not likely to have been contaminated with x
I personally would stick to pure foods without possible other allergens. For gluten, we gave pasta, seedless organic whole wheat toast, and farro. For peanuts, we watered down organic peanut butter and mixed it into some oatmeal. For later exposures, we mixed a bit into her yogurt and spread it on toast. For tree nuts, we did almond butter on toast and pesto (we made it with pinenuts) on chickpea pasta. For eggs, we just made an egg omelette. For dairy, we added organic cream to butternut squash soup, gave yogurt, and added cheese to her omelettes. For sesame, we made homemade hummus with tahini and gave it to her on teething crackers then made hummus pancakes. For soy, we ground up some edamame in a food processor and spoon fed it to her. You could also just do soy milk but I didn't want to buy a whole bottle of milk of something we were only using for the exposure.
Yea you don’t want to offer something with two common allergens because then if they react you won’t know which it is. So find something with gluten that doesn’t contain peanuts or seeds or whatever. If they’ve eaten bread they’ve had gluten. When we did peanuts I just offered peanut butter.
May contain is more it’s not a main ingredient but could have come in contact in the making of the food x for example I am df but can have may contain xx
