Urgent Hershey's semisweet chips
« on: February 04, 2013, 02:28:59 PM »
Quck question, and I do realize the true answer is "read the actual package"

I have a need to know if anyone is using Hershey Semisweet chips lately and what the actual warning of nuts or peanuts may be if you've seen one...same facility/lines/ or actual may contain?

Thanks :)

I have a package purchased within the past 2 to 3 weeks that has no warning.  I also purchased several packages over holidays and made fudge.  DD ate the fudge without any problems.

i have not seen any warnings on semi sweet or milk chocolate flavors. 
I know some other versions do have warning.  Look on website...I remember giving a little bit of allergy advice on facebook when all these non allergy moms were saying HERSHEYS!  just use hershey's with their heads bobbling. 
some hershey's morsels do have warnings

I haven't seen a warning on any Hershey Choc Chips in years (however, they do make butterscotch and cinnamon chips with warnings). 

My be a regional thing though, so of course - you know the rest. ;-)

thanks all :)

...and yes, I know the rest, which is why I didn't post the reason for why I needed to know some generalities.

All is well :)
