When you hear... think...

Sometimes I see this on the FAQ section of smaller manufacturers' Web sites:

Q:  Are your products produced on the same lines as products containing nuts?
A:  None of our products contain nuts

When I see this I think: The manufacturer is covering up something.  Because many brands are produced in shared factories with other brands.  And even the larger brands sometimes produce smaller brands or supermarket brands in their factories.  But the answer doesn't tell me what's on the lines or in the factory, only what their products contain.

When I see an answer like that I don't use that brand.  I won't even call because I wouldn't trust their answer.
