My son was o.k. with a couple of Trader Joe's cookie/ sweet things for awhile, but then got hives a couple of times. I also noticed, at that time, that their allergy warning changed from "we follow good practices to avoid cross contamination" to something more vague. I don't know for sure that it was the Trader Joe's stuff, but I did call them and they said they could not guarantee anything. This was a couple of years ago, though. They may have changed their warnings/ practices again. We still eat many Trader Joe's things, but I have not bought the cookies or a couple of other sweet things we used to get since.

I'm suspicious that their sister company Aldi's has Enjoy Life Snickerdoodles under their Live G Free branding.

I gave up on Trader Joes because of our allergy set because of the lack of labeling and switched to Aldi because of their over-labeling.  Never thought I would say that.

We love those Dare maple cookies!  I hope so!  I have not been for awhile either, and I have one in my town.  I tend to go when we run out of sunbutter, and I had to order 6 jars n line last time, because they were out at TJs.  So, it has been several months for me too. I will have to check around.

I haven't been to TJ's in about 4-5 months...went today on my way back to the upper valley (exactly 1:45m from not one but 3 different TJs...anyhow...)

I perused around...and some products I used to see 'may contain tree nuts' on were now 'may contain coconut' and saw lots of coconut on the labels. And, tree nuts listed out too --- specifically --- almonds or hazelnuts or pecans. That's a lot more detail than I ever recall seeing.

I also noted (but didn't buy) their Maple Leaf Joe-Joes and Pumpkin Joe-Joes say 'Made in Canada' and have no peanut/treenut warning...could it be...DARE IN DISGUISE?!?!?!?!? (or Dare manufacturing for TJs?)
