Sees Candy
« on: October 30, 2011, 10:43:35 AM »
I saw this link on another website.  Apparently Sees has some products that are free of certain allergens.  It seems sort of impossible that any of their products could be nut free.  The stores themselves seem to be a minefield of cross-contamination!  I can't see myself letting DD have any of their products.......regardless of what their website says.  What do you all think?

DS:  NKFA, allergic to ibuprofen, asthma, env allergies

Not.in.a.million.years.

No way, no how.

Even my DH (who has a high threshold for XC and is only allergic to ONE treenut) has never been able to safely eat anything See's.

Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.

The last time I was in See`s about six months ago, they had a sign up basically warning people with a nut allergy not to buy there due to x contamination.  This is quite a change.  Yeah, it`s a little hard to believe.

Likewise. I suspect this is like Dryer's "peanut free" BS.

I have let my TNA son have the See's lollipops only with no problems.  I seem to remember that they are made in a separate facility.
