Twin Anchors - NOT SAFE

Manager said they have never been asked to accommodate peanut/tree nut allergies.  I was pulling teeth to learn about risks of x-contamination in their kitchen.  2 of their BBQ sauces are made elsewhere without disclosure of allergen practices.  No surfaces, equipment and grills are segregated to protect against any allergens.

Jet's Pizza - SAFE!

No nuts in any menu item, they make all of their own foods from scratch ingredients. They told me that they use no sauces or ingredients processed in another facility. I hope that's really true because this is going to be our go-to pizza!

Written today:  I have severe allergies to tree nuts and peanuts and must avoid potential cross-contamination by any type of nut dust.  Are any of your breads (including food service varieties) safe for me to eat?  If so, can you please advise which types of consumer and which types of food service breads, and if it's from a specific facility where no nuts are used, then what do I have to do to identify the proper baking or packaging facility?  I encounter your breads in restaurants and groceries and need to know how to navigate the product lines safely.  Many thanks!
