Hi Lynda, Today my daughter and I donated several tree nut allergy free and organic items to the American Red Cross. While I am sure there will be many donations, kids with allergies may not be able to consume. Kristina Portilla
Sorry, I think you misunderstood me. What I was talking about is different than shared lines at a manufacturer's facility. I am talking about when a third party repackages a product like Dum Dums for a store such as Target, CVS, etc. This is done separate from the manufacturer's facility. Even though the candy may have been free of allergens when made and packaged in a manufacturer's facility. These repackaged items, cross-contamination is introduced when the it is rebagged by a third-party.

I didn't see any cross contact information listed on the Julian bakery website. Please double check to make sure of the product's safety for any of the allergies you are managing.
I'm a little confused whether there is an ongoing risk of almond cross-contamination in cumin. It seemed that almond dropped off the alerts, but it also appeared that part of the concern initially related to broad almond cross-contamination. Has there been any further information about that?
Are you referring to products that "may contain" traces of the top 8 food allergens due to shared equipment issues? The Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) that went into effect in 2006 does not require manufacturers to list common allergenic ingredients resulting from shared equipment and cross contamination issues. It still remains the responsibility of consumers to read labels carefully and call manufacturers to be sure that each food is safe for their unique...
