Allergen Note*

Their “may contain” statement only lists nuts and peanuts, but this product is certified kosher dairy. That means it’s probably made on shared equipment with dairy. Be sure to contact the company about their allergen processes if potential trace contamination with milk is a concern. Keep in mind that “may contain” statements are voluntary and unregulated.
