I e-mailed the CLIF Bar folks to see if their new organic twisted fruit was safe for my daughter (allergic to peanuts and tree nuts) and here's what they said:
**All Twisted Fruit flavors are made in an allergy-free facility.
Therefore, your daughter can safely eat our Twisted Fruit product.**
Just thought I'd share the good news!

Although the machinery that Clif Bar products are baked on is given a complete wet wash between bakes of different flavors, unfortunately, a microscopic trace (some literature suggests only a thousandth of a milligram!) of peanut and/or tree nuts can trigger a reaction in an allergic individual. There is simply no way to guarantee a peanut- and/or tree nut-free product in a facility where large amounts of peanut butter and almond butter are used."
