Well I got a very quick response below from Kelloggs. I specifically called out nutri-grain. I am satisfied that nothing has changed. One uniformed consumer service technician does not always answer your questions, but this is their policy in writing. I don't want to lose Kellogg's...we already don't use Kraft.

We are so glad you took the time to connect with us. Your interest in Kellogg’s® Nutri-Grain® Cereal Bars is appreciated and we are happy to share more information about allergen labeling with you.
You definitely can trust our labeling. Scientific evidence has shown that consumers with peanut and tree nut allergies can have a severe reaction to amounts that are below the current detectable limits based on existing technology. For this reason, we have chosen to warn consumers allergic to peanuts and tree nuts of the potential for extremely low levels by using a may contain statement.
Even though the equipment is thoroughly cleaned in between processes and we follow Good Manufacturing Practices in all of our facilities, to avoid cross contamination a may contain statement is placed on those products. This indicates that a product is produced on a line that shares equipment with another product that does contain peanuts or tree nuts.Thank you again for reaching out to us. We hope this information answers your question completely and that your family will continue to be able to enjoy our products. If there is anything else we can help you with, please contact us again by calling 1-800-962-1413. You can also visit us online at
