Gone Nutty Poptarts

[Janelle205]

I don't know about the safety of Pop Tarts originally, but just saw that they have come out with two new 'Gone Nutty!' flavors: Peanut Butter and Chocolate Peanut Butter.


No personal ideas about manufacturing practices - I'm not personally PA.

There's a recent thread about Kellogg's labeling and several people got written confirmation that they do label for shared lines. I hate when there are flavors like this though. Pop Tarts have survived what seems like forever without nutty flavors.

Just saw this posted on their facebook. It was posted by Kelloggs after someone posted concerns about the peanut:

The Gone Nutty! Peanut Butter Pop-Tarts are produced in a separate facility from our other flavors so there will be no cross-contamination. The new varieties also have different boxes and foil packages to alert consumers of the peanut ingredients.

Jessica-where is that posted?  I'd like to post it for my local allergy group.

Glad someone knew more about this than I did.  Didn't want to alarm anyone, but thought I should share.


I would still be super careful with Pop Tarts that you don't actually see come out of the box.  I haven't actually seen the nutty ones, but with the others, it is almost impossible to tell the difference between the foil wrappers - one of the reasons we don't keep unsafe ones in our house.

I don't see a way to link to a person's post on a page, but if you go to their facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/kelloggspoptarts?fref=ts and click "see all" on 'recent posts by others' it was in there. There's another now, with the same reply, that was posted at around 1:30 pm eastern time today.
