Hi all,

I am the only one in my immediate family without life threatening food
allergies so I cannot escape food allergy concerns....

The "Ingredients" section for Nature Valley Oat 'n Honey says it "may
contain" these ingredients: "Peanut, Almond and Pecan." Snack products
that say they "may contain" nuts are not guaranteed to be nut-free. In
fact, the manufacturer is clearly warning consumers that nuts may be
present. Our allergist is pretty adamant that she does not want her
patients with food allergies eating foods that say "May contain" an
ingredient for which the patient has an allergy. One better alternative is
"School Safe" snacks that can be found at Whole Foods. I also found a list
of suggested peanut and tree nut-free foods on the Web. It may be useful
but I recommend that you read the labels for these snack before buying.
Here is the link:

Best,

Janell
