Trader Joe's Allergen Info - rely on TJ brand labels - OUTDATED INFO

Thank you for contacting us again with your concerns. The information that was provided at the store to you is correct. If you do not see an allergen statement on a product then there are none of the eight major allergens present in the facility. If you see an allergen statement on the package and it does not list nuts then it is a nut free facility. For all products that are not Trader Joe's we ask that you contact the manufacturer as the allergen labeling is voluntary at Trader Joe's and
other companies may not list them on their packages. We will take your request for lists of this nature into consideration. Thank you for your inquiry and thank you for shopping at Trader Joe's .
