Finding snacks for the kids is always a challenge since it
is an option for companies to state
if it was made in a facility that processes nuts. I recently have tried a few products that
tasted delicious! Here a few that we
have tried personally.
Tootsie Roll – The package states that it is made in a peanut
free facility. Who doesn’t love tootsie
rolls?
Sixlets Candy – I have actually got these at the dollar store on multiple occasions and it also states on the package that it is nut free.
Kettle Brand – We buy the ridiculously sized back from
Costco and they are delicious. In
addition to being nut free, they are also Non GMO! What more can you ask for?
YumEarth Organics – Their suckers, fruit snacks, and gummy bears are awesome! They won’t break the bank either. I have found these at Target and Kroger. Great for Halloween.
Even with peanut free options I still try to limit the kids sugar intake, but it is nice to send these to school so that while other children are celebrating birthdays with food, my children can enjoy a safer option.
Here is a large list of companies that I found that are allergen safe.
While the list has extremely valuable information, always check packaging from any food that you purchase. There were a few companies on the list who have since changed their policy and are no longer nut free.
