I think the concern was with mfg. cross contamination - the boxes being next to eachother probably brought the possibility to mind.
They've been recalled over the years, too-- so it's VERY likely that they share a manufacturing line. I'll also add, here, that our personal experience suggests that ANYTHING "JELLO" brand probably shares a packaging line...
because my DD has very consistently reacted to even very small amounts of Jello-- not even the pudding (which she's never had, to be clear)-- even jello-jello.. This is an N, here, of at least seven or eight, and some of those reactions have been grade III or more, and to a single bite of something.
She is very definitely NOT allergic to food colorings or gelatin, but she is highly allergic to pistachio and cashew. So I think that for someone with a known pistachio allergy, severe rxn hx, and a demonstrably low threshold, this is probably a somewhat valid concern. It's why we don't use anything in the Jello line.

- November 21, 2012, 05:43:12 AMI don't know about always, but they had pistachio when I was a child, over 40 years ago. It could have gone away and come back, but I think they've always had it. Just maybe not in every store.

- November 20, 2012, 08:55:17 PMI thought it was shared lines and ds is allergic to pistachios & almonds.i thought I read people had reactions to jello pudding. Have they always had pistachio flavored?
Hormel makes Giant brand. They break down machine and sanitize 3 times after each flavor. Nuts in warehouse!

- November 20, 2012, 07:38:33 PMWait--I'm not understanding why you didn't buy the chocolate pudding. Because it was next to the pistachio?
If you're concerned, wipe of the box before you get home with a Clorox wipe.
I do have a friend--from here--whose son had a rxn after eating Sunbutter (which he ate all the time and was not allergic to) because the outside somehow got cross contaminated with PB--from being handled.
When I buy pistachios and almonds (otherwise safe for my son) that are near peanuts, I just wipe the outside off with a clorox wipe.

- November 20, 2012, 02:25:05 PMI only use it for recipes that call for pudding already made. My pudding pie is simply a Keebler Graham Cracker crust, Kozy Shack pudding and Cool Whip...or if I have time, fresh whipped cream. It is something I usually make when I have to make several different desserts because it so easy and everyone loves it.
