Warning! Peanut Flour Added to Sandwich Crackers
« on: March 30, 2016, 03:31:12 PM »

Just in case anyone uses these.  I've always worried about cc from the peanut butter crackers but do know a mom who uses the cheese ones.  I was letting the boys (no allergies) have the Pepper Jack ones but no more at home!

Crazy.  We are not PA, but my kids bring the cheese flavor to swim meets sometimes...might have to think about finding a different brand since there is one swimmer that is PA.

Let me just say, here, though--  :clap: for making a clear ANNOUNCEMENT about the ingredient change ahead of the rollout. 
Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.

But this makes me sad. Peanut flour. Seriously?!

I did buy these--not often, but I did.
Me: Sesame, shellfish, chamomile, sage
DS: Peanuts

This could potentially be a real problem -- aren't these items in vending machines a lot of the time?

I can just see a kid getting one from vending machine, as he has always done, and not even thinking to recheck the ingredients for this unexpected source of peanut.

Geez.

 :disappointed:

Yeah-- should probably tweet this one as an announcement.


This has been one of our go-to safe snacks for a very long time-- at least 5 years.


Let me emphasize AGAIN-- this is The Problem With Safe Snack LISTS.

Ingredients CHANGE

EVERY LABEL, EVERY TIME.
