Gale & Jimmy'sMom, I immediately had the same thought. I'm not running out to buy the champagne and confetti for the big celebration just yet. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/wink.gif[/img]
I think I'll call the number on the link later and find out if they will be "may contain" or not and register my [b]extreme[/b] displeasure if they are.

Nestle USA does not know how to make Coffee Crisp bars, so my guess is that they will just import them from Canada.
Or at least I hope they will import them from Canada.

What is sheanut? Is it a treenut? I never heard of it before, please forgive me!
Timmy's Mom, can't really answer your question. Some members believe sheanut is a tree nut and other's believe it is a tree fruit. There has been much discussion on the board about it, going back years. There was discussion last week where the response from FAAN was re-raised.
If you need some help finding the threads, let me know.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I would walk up to heaven and bring you back home with me.
I called them tonight and they told me that while the product itself wouldn't contain, we have to read each wrapper to determine whether or not they are cross-contaminated. *Sigh* It doesn't sound as thought they are planning to make them on dedicated lines.
We'll have to wait and see. Have there been any local sightings yet?

I'm betting that if they are going to be manufactured in the US, then they will have palm oil instead of shea oil as Nestle USA using palm and palm kernel oil, not shea oil (like the Canadian counterpart).

Found them tonight at my local variety store... no warning! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
They are made in Canada, BTW.

I don't think the US distribution has begun yet. There were some stores in the US that have had the ones from Canada off and on for a few months now, so I'm not sure that's indicative of what is to come from Nestle USA.

Next time someone calls Nestle USA, this would be a good question to ask (where will the bars be manufactured) [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
