cfkjc2 cfkjc2 Registered: 07/13/07 Posts: 110 Loc: USA	It always saddens me that whenever we are in starbucks, my daughter can never have a treat like most kids. Today, I saw the packaged black and white cookies by the register and thought I would take a look at the label. Starbucks, although a big company, is never good at labeling. Out of my surprise, this one has an allergn label, and it is safe! ( we deal with peanut only) My daughter and I shared a package and it's such small thing that most families take it for granted, but we certainly had a great time hanging out there and enjoying our treats. _________________________ JC

As I remember, it listed for wheat and soy..... do go check, they are super yummy! _________________________ JC

My husband wanted to stop at Starbucks today and my DS was upset he wouldn't be able to have anything. I remembered reading this and thought I'd check them out. They were labeled well and my DS really enjoyed them! We were all so excited to have found a new treat! Thanks again!!!! _________________________ DS(age 6): Peanut/Tree Nut Allergies DD(age 3): NKA

Before I learn about this, I often wonder why the coffee does not taste as good there, so I asked a manger and found out about it. _________________________ JC

Anyhow, is it my understanding that the cookie has appropriate cross contamination labeling on it? It doesn't merely have a 'contains' statement? _________________________ I'm not a doctor, see your own for advice.

They may have certainly changed since I last asked, but before I give my kids a cookie from Starbucks, I would check with the place that makes them.

Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	I know so many people that only go by contains statements. i am not one of them. sometimes i think i am being too strict with my son but just because it doesnt say it was made in a facility with nuts doesnt mean that it wasnt. then you have to choose if its safe or not depending on if it was made in a different room, etc. i wish labeling was more specific but it isnt. i may let my son try it because he ate bakery cakes before and never had a problem, he even ate nutter butter cookies when he was little and was fine?? he threw up when he ate actual peanuts. i know he is allergic to peanut butter too im just saying that it was weird that he was able to eat that pb cookie. one boy in his class sent a note in that he is allergic to peanuts but not peanut butter???
