I still need to finish reading all of the discussion re: Unilever, but am interested in what you're finding. And as parent of a peanut allergic child, I am disturbed by your findings as well. I use some of these products on a regular basis...

The popsicle brand website has a pretty good reply to allergy labeling and how they clean their equipment. They clearly state that everything is on mixed use equipment and what they do to prevent cross contamination including testing the runs. So that is probably why they do not note cross contamination on the label at least for popsicle brand items. I haven't checked into the other items.

If you are still organizing a call-in, I am on board. I would like to know about Lipton teas!
