Thank you for sharing!! I will check out the group. I'm new to sharing on this forum.. 

I'm so sorry to hear about your son's reaction.  Do check out the After the Epi support thread we have there.  It's a good way to process things.  Hugs~

Thank you!!!

LullabyMamma, I think it's awesome that the founder of the company called you back and took you through what happened and what they're doing to prevent it in the future. 

And I'm really glad that you got to the bottom of the reaction so that it was not a mystery reaction.

We have several moms who manage sesame allergy, so if you ever have any questions or need help, just post a new topic on our forums and we'll all pitch in.

Thank you for sharing and for your words of encouragement. This happened a week ago and it was scary and baffling because I did not know what caused it. Actually, I did contact the company and the founder called me back. I have been given a copy of the press release.He was profoundly apologetic and reassuring.  He explained to me the active steps he has taken to ensure it never happens again. Apparently,  they believe a small batch was packaged incorrectly as they transitioned to becoming a dairy-free facility and the entire facility since been overhauled  to Make sure nothing has been in contact with a dairy product.  Speaking with him, sharing my concerns helped considerably. I've been to the ER with my child before after he accidentally consumed dairy and we've had a few close calls because we recently discovered he is now allergic to sesame. I have a food allergy and have experienced anaphylaxis first hand. I never want anyone to experience that if I can avoid it. That is why I called my local supermarket, posted the recall all over facebook, left a note on this website, and contacted the company. I'm so glad this website exists and there is a forum for parents and families who live with this every day. Thank you so much!! 

Son is allergic to dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, sesame; asthma/ eczema

Mom allergic to shellfish

  I'm so sorry.  That's very upsetting.

We have an After the Epi support circle where you can decompress.  I know it usually hits me a few days after.

How are you and he doing now?

Oh, my gracious! I'm so glad that he is okay. Definitely inform both the company and the FDA through the FDA's consumer complaint department. 

My child had an adverse reaction to this product so, for the record, there is more than one adverse event. Last week,  I was baffled as I sat in the ER waiting room wondering if my child would be okay and what caused this. I have now informed people via facebook. My child has multiple food allergies which includes a severe dairy allergy. Two small bites of this product and I was in my local ER waiting for the Benadryl to kick in thinking he must have developed a new allergy to sunflower seeds. Fortunately, he did not have to be admitted and we sat there for an hour waiting. I kept the wrapper for my allergist to see. Now... mystery solved. When these things happen, it shakes one's faith in food labels. I am very upset and want to get the word out so no one else has this happen to them.
