They clean and test for dairy.
I'm aware, it's just not within my comfort zone because many companies wash and test to pareve standards and I don't know the new conglomerate owners effect in real terms on their manufacturing process or disclosure on new products. I know for most milk allergic individuals that works.
Turtle Mountain and Bob's Red Mill are the ones I'd like to explore. For me they are local and I have the chance of nearly full disclosure to make an informed choice. I'm thinking as scary as those two shared facilities may be that it
might not be as feared so long as I know what the cleaning is in more specific terms, what the testing is in more specific terms. They are also independently owned at the time I write this, I believe.
CM and I live in a rapidly evaporating waterhole in terms of food access to the point of food all around us but very little we can eat. We have
fabulous grocery stores and a wealth of family owned organic farms but negotiating it is like a minefield. A lot of claims are made to "free of" but you learn scratch the surface plus a few layers underneath or suffer.
Case in point: Burgerville's "peanut free" menu -- oh, we didn't think PB dog treats we hand out with the food should be disclosed to humans because the treats are for dogs. Plus they were gluten free and organic, which of course means... I'm too tired to go expend on BV any more.
