Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 I got a reply back from Nestles regarding butter fingers. Dear Mr. Morley, Thank you for contacting Nestlé® Butterfinger® . Nestlé Butterfinger's do not contain any Gluten. However the Giant 5oz Butterfinger does contain Gluten. Labeling regulations require that if any of the eight recognized known allergens, such as gluten, are in the product, they must be listed in the ingredient statement. We always list the allergen by its common name. Additionally, our factories, that use any of the recognized allergens as an ingredient, take all precautions to avoid cross contact of products that do not contain them. We always add a cautionary statement at the end of our packaging ingredient listing if a product is made on the same line or factory of those products containing a recognized allergen. It is recommended that you always check the label before purchasing a product. I have included a link to our gluten free list at the end of this email that I hope you will find helpful. We appreciate your interest and hope you will visit our website often for the latest information on our products and promotions.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yes I agree with you , it's crazy. Sorry Nestle, but the notion that only some Butterfingers will poison me immediately puts that candy (all Butterfingers) on my DON'T EVER EAT list. kat mulkey > > Not that I'm looking to eat a giant 5oz.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 LOL! I know. If I have to work that hard to figure out which of your identical products is ok, I'll go for some other treat. Yes I agree with you , it's crazy.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Both the York Peppermint Patties and the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are safe to eat.They are both made by Hershey's and this is their allergy information: Food Allergies What is a food allergy? It is an adverse reaction to a food or food component that involves the body's immune system. How does The Hershey Company manage allergies? The Hershey Company strives to provide its consumers with accurate, reliable ingredient statements upon which consumers can make their purchase decision. The Hershey Company has an Allergy Task Force that ensures that the ingredient statements are always accurate, and that any allergen statements placed on the label is understandable. Do your products share plants & equipment? We take food allergies very seriously at Hershey and have strict procedures in place to prevent crossover of allergens into other products that do not contain the allergen. In instances where we have a concern about possible crossover by an allergen we take the added precaution of including an allergy information statement on the label. Can you send me an allergen list? We have found that allergen lists quickly become outdated as our product lines change over time. Rather than have you make purchase decisions based on outdated information, we encourage you to check the ingredient label on the package. This label provides accurate, current information about all the ingredients in the package. They do not have the ingredients listed on line but I have been eating both of these for years without any problems. But always check the labels to be sure.
