Newman's pasta sauces - SAFE, salad dressing - NOT SAFE

10/12/2011
Dear Ms. Young,

Thank you for taking the time to write to us at Newman's Own.

All of our products are labeled in compliance with FDA regulations concerning food allergens. The manufacturing plants where our products are produced all have Allergen Management Programs which involve employee training, proper storage and labeling of ingredients containing allergens, scheduling production of products without allergens before production of products with allergens and rigorous sanitation and testing procedures for the manufacturing equipment between production of different products.

With respect to pasta sauces, there are currently no peanuts or tree nuts in our manufacturing facilities. With respect to salad dressing, there are no peanuts in the facilities, but there are tree nuts both in the plant as well as on shared production equipment.

We hope this information was helpful. Thank you for your interest in our products.

Sincerely,
Newman's Own Customer Service
