I had posted about safe carob chips I had found a few months ago. NSPIRED foods makes several varieties of safe chocolate chips and carob chips, naturally sweetened with whole grains rather than refined sugars. They have a great website which shows they are very allergy aware, and they make SOME other safe snacks too (nspiredfoods.com).
I contacted two other very health aware companies today, and both turned out to be nut-free! They both make dried fruits-that are crunchy-not chewy-good for snacking and great for recipies, and some crunchy veggie snacks and SAFE soynuts. blackbirdfood.com and justtomateos.com are the websites if anyone is interested!
I just looked at Blackbirdfoods.com and it said you could order nuts from them. Did they tell you they did not have nuts at all or just not in the dried fruits/veggies factory? They look tasty but I just want to make sure before I order them.

Jaime, I saw that too and was worried, so I emailed and they said that they do not carry the nuts anymore, and haven't for 9 monts or so now, and assured me it was safe. And I ate their product with no reaction. If you email them they should respond the same day. Hope that helps! Lisa
