I started the Original thread at the other place. :) I got this response from them:

We make our Cream of Wheat products at several different plants. The instants, with the exception of the To Go cereal items, are made in a peanut and tree nut free plant. The To Go items and the stove top varieties (such as 10, 2.5 and 1 minute loose cereal items) are made in plants that are peanut free but not tree nut free.
 
We realize the importance of eliminating the possibility of cross contamination. Each plant has a detailed protocol in place to prevent any type of contamination by washing and sanitizing all lines at the end of the fill cycle for each product. There are inspectors who constantly monitor the lines to avoid any type of product contamination.

Are the ones in the peanut free but not tree nut free plant made on shared equipment?
