    Important Notes

    Be Allergen Aware: If your special diet needs are particular, please read this article carefully and inquire with the manufacturer prior to purchasing. I have included notes on what “free-from” needs these companies cater to (including soy-free, gluten-free, and nut-free!). However, products, ingredients and processes may change at any time and cross-contamination can be a risk in manufacturing. Always double check with the manufacturer before purchasing or consuming any food whenever there is a food allergy concern.

      Dairy free is so important now in time… more people including myself have had issues with dairy my whole life. My body is 100% more healthy now that I’m dairy-free. Nice list to choose from here.

      just saying, surf sweet jelly beans are not vegan, they are dairy free, but not vegan. They contain confectioners glaze which comes from beetles . so please dont spread false information

        I clarified to avoid any misunderstanding. As noted, they have both vegan and non-vegan selections. Still a lot to choose from among their gummies, which are sold by most of the vegan stores. Enjoy!
