I called Nabisco September last year. I found them to be very helpful. I was told that the PB oreos are now made in a different facility. (this was after one of the recent recalls). They said if there ever would be any chance of Cros contamination, they would list it in the ingredient statement.
I see you are new. If you do a search, you will find other threads about Oreos, some fairly recent.
But to answer your question, yes, I give my DS Oreos. But I read the label every time. And you will find that there are some here that don't give their child Oreos. I trust Kraft's labeling (they are Nabisco's parent company), but they have had a couple of recalls concerning allergies in the past year.
Thanks. My daughter adores them.
Be REALLY careful on this one as it put us in the hospital once! Oreo cookies are fine and so are gummy bears (or they were once upon a time). But at a birthday party my son received in his "party bag" an oreo cookie/ gummy bear combo product in a little unit-of-use manufactured tin by the oreo company. Well it DID contain peanut oil for some unknown reason and it got by us!!! So as we all would say on this site, always double check!
Yes, we give them oreos, and a few other snacks that DONT say "trace of peanuts". What I find weird is, the apple cinnamon rice cakes by QQuaker says may contain traces of peanut, but the caramel corn ones dont say that, anyone know about the rice cakes?

I do give my daughter Oreos and never had a problem. I do read the labels each time I buy them because Nabisco does make a "peamut butter Oreo." check and double-check!
Coop loves Oreo cookies. Watch out for the "Cookie Bars" About two years ago I read the lable and it contained peanut flour.
Hope it helps

Yes, I have found that different flavors of Quaker rice cakes have different warnings (or lack of warnings) on them. So they must label the ones that are made on the same equipment as the ones with peanut butter in them, and the others without the warnings must be made on separate equipment. I like that kind of labeling. We have eaten the Quaker caramel corn rice cakes for that reason. When I e-mailed Nabisco about Oreos, they said we should check the label of each package of Oreos because they will tell you if they ran on the same machines as the peanut butter ones, and that can change at any time. So I do feel fine about feeding my DD Oreos.
Thought I would balance out all the yes'es....
NO!!! We do not give DD Oreo's! Every single time there is a recall, it is a baked good, ice cream, or Asian. Baking cookies yourseelf is not that difficult. Oreo's are not worth my daughter's life.
BTW, there was a recall on Oreo's during the last 6 to 9 months due to peanuts.

With regards to Apple Cinnamim Rice Cakes, my kids love them and we by Safeway brand if you have that grocery chain in your area. They do not make a peanut butter one to my knowledge.
