Foods That Are Obviously Not Safe

Anything that clearly contains nuts or peanuts, peanut or nut butters, peanut or nut oils, peanut flour, ground peanuts or ground nuts. This includes peanut butter crackers, trail mix, Cracker Jack, anything with M&Ms (the plain ones contain peanut, too!), certain cereals, and obvious brand names such as "Reese's", "Planters" or "Skippy".

Foods That Should Raise Red Flags - Check Ingredient Labels!

Granola bars, rice cakes, "sandwich" crackers (even the cheese varieties usually contain peanut butter), baked goods, snack foods (particularly "gourmet" pretzel brands with peanut-butter filled varieties), cookies, crackers, ice creams, and candies.

Foods That Usually Don't Have To Be Questioned

Cheese products such as cheese sticks/bars/slices, cream cheese or cottage cheese, yogurts (check mix-ins such as granola), Go-gurts and yogurt shakes, soy yogurts and cheeses, fresh or canned fruit and vegetables, apple sauce, fruit cups, pudding cups, jello, hard-boiled egg, sandwich meats, tofu.
