Good company too.  I eat their croissants.  They are labeled peanut/nut free, and I called about sesame seeds.

When I looked on their web-site there are links for Canadian sell-sheet and a separate link for US sell-sheet.  (I assume there are some differences in what our governments require to be listed.)  If you can't find them, send an e-mail and ask.

Wonderful!  I hope it has a PN free logo prominently displayed.  Maybe that will help this kind of labeling catch on here.

Great article-I can't wait to see if I can find those when they have them in the US.

I didn't know they had benadryl in a shot. From this part:

He had another problem on a flight from Atlanta last year.

"I can't find anything so I get Chick-fil-A. It's chicken, right?" he said. "I open the box, I start eating the chicken and (my wife) Bronte is right beside me and she looks at the box. 'Cooked in peanut oil.' I'm like, 'Who would use peanut oil in an airport? It's more expensive than vegetable oil.'"

Bronte gave him a Benadryl shot. He fell asleep and woke up OK.

I moved this to this thread because I spent hours looking for it.

We were able to find micro croissants locally by this company after I emailed them.  It's a store two towns over so the kids won't get them all the time, but it's a nice change for them from regular bread.  Both kids loved them and I'll use them for "fun" lunches for school.

What store was it?

It's a local non-chain store.  You need to email the company with your location and they will hopefully be able to provide you with some local stores.

thanks. I did that earlier but I think it was probably after they had closed for the day.
