Does SantaCruz use irradiated peanuts in this product (I hope not)?

USDA organic standards prohibit irradiation. Since this product is certified organic, it should not be irradiated.

Hi, I just found an article that read: "Peanuts can't be irradiated." Here is the link: http://www.tampabay.com/news/humaninterest/qampa-irradiation-cant-be-used-on-peanuts/993070 HOWEVER, since not everything on the internet is correct, I would recommend contacting Santa Cruz directly and just ask them. Hope this helped. :-)

Just checked their website. It says no peanuts or tree nuts are processed in their facilities.

We have peanut and tree nut allergies and have been using it for a while. It would have to state on the package if there is a chance of cross contamination or if tree nuts and peanuts are processed on the same equioment. I read all the ingredients before buying but to reassure yourself, you should go to their website or give them a call.

Hello and thank you for asking... Our Raw Spanish Peanuts are exactly as they appear in the image provided. Shelled, Raw. Not Roasted, Not Salted and No Shells. We do carry Peanuts in the Shell, however, they are provided under a different item number and the image would show the shell. Thanks !

See other answers say no, but I can't answer for certain. Can't imagine they'd grind up peanuts though and put them in cookie batter. Unnecessary expense.(Btw, a family of possums came into my garage, unwrapped each cookie, and ate them all. So, never got to use them. lol. Hope they got good fortunes....).

No, I don't actually know, but peanuts come in a shell so any pesticides used would not be in the final product anyway. I use this stuff and love love love it.

The package state that product is manufactured in a facility that also uses tree nuts, soy, wheat and milk. Peanuts are not mentioned. Just got mine yesterday, so I'm taking this from the bag.

I can't say for sure but I believe so, nothing on the package indicates any association with peanuts. The label reads "All of our products are packaged by hand the old-fashioned way in our packaging facility located in Indiana...America's heartland (Hoosier Hill Farm LLC Fort Wayne, Indiana USA 46808). The ingredients are listed as: A dehydrated blend of cheese (granular and blue (pasteurized milk, cheese cultures, salt enzymes)), whey, partially hydrogenated soybean oil, whey protein concentrate, lactose, maltodextrin, salt, sodium, phosphate, citric acid, lactic acid, yellow 5, yellow 6. *Contains milk and soy ingredients. Nothing else is listed aside from the nutritional content and a product summary / snack suggestions.

I don't know but the ingredients on the package do not state peanuts. To verify, one should contact the product maker.

It is not said in the label it has. It comes from Bolivia and Domenican Republic, Could be from other country also but I do not think this product is procesed on shared lines with peanuts or tree nuts.

I use my mother's old recipe, including stringing the sugar and water and not using a candy thermometer, which calls for Spanish peanuts with the red hulls. I have tried other peanuts, usually larger, but they don't seem to cook through in the time it takes for the sugar to cook and deepen in color. Thus I always have a mad search for raw Spanish peanuts at Christmas time.

I use regular unsalted peanuts I usually get at Costco. I used salted once in error and they were NOT well received.

Yes, the label does say it may contain traces of peanuts or tree nuts. So it is processed it a plant that may also process other nuts.

It doesn't say anything except pecans fresh from Georgia...and they're wonderful! I did not see any peanuts in the package nor any residue (shells, etc.)--I think these pecans come from pecan orchards (nut trees) and not from the legume farmers, since peanuts are a legume/pea plant. And, there is nothing on the label to indicate that the pecans are processed in a plant that also processes peanuts. ....So, looks to me as if they're purely pecans! Anyway, they are super nuts...I baked a pecan pie for Thanksgiving that had to be the best ever, and I make a lot of pecan pies! Good luck!

This product is irradiated according to the manufacturer, BUT I am still concerned about Chinese treats in general.
