It does have a contains label for peanuts and not tree nuts. The last ingredient is defatted peanut flour (which just sounds disgusting to me and I like peanuts). And I looked at the ingredient list - it clearly lists coconut.
So here is my dilemma. Do I send them the pictures and ask for clarification as to why it doesn't say it contains tree nuts? Or do I just let it go - advocate in me says something needs to be done and while I know most people with coconut allergies would say no to the product based on the name alone, it just concerns me that it is omitted given the fact the FDA clearly states coconut is a tree nut.
