> Allergy Note:

> We have just recently discovered and confirmed with the Spectrum company

that they also produce a soy based margarine on the same line as the

shortening. And though they clean their lines extensively between runs, a

risk of cross contamination with both soy protein and lecithin exists at

least in principle. For further information please contact Spectrum at

.
