Atkins bars contain known allergens (tree nuts, peanuts, soy, wheat and milk.) Bars that do not contain a specific allergen are produced in facilities where these products are used, therefore cross contamination can occur. We follow all FDA guidelines for notification of allergens.
Atkins labels their food products that contain ingredients that are major food allergens, with a “CONTAINS” statement per FDA regulations as follows:
“Place the word “Contains,” followed by the name of the food source from which the major food allergen is derived, immediately after or adjacent to the list of ingredients, in a type size that is no smaller than that used for the ingredient list”.
The only time that this “Contains” allergen statement would need to be placed on the front panel would be if this were a single ingredient food, which doesn’t apply to any Atkins products.
Please be sure to read the declared allergen statement along with the ingredients on any products you purchase as your health and wellbeing is our number one concern.
