How ironic - I just returned with a box of pop tarts after "checking" the
ingredients. I remember attempting to buy them last year and was
disappointed that yet another "junk" food was not a possibility for my
child. It is strange that us "mothers of allergic kids" take delight when
our kids can eat a store-bought junk food item! Anyhow, I tried them and I
concur with your husband - they tasted alot better before - probably due to
the "whey powder". I plan on calling Kelloggs to see about
cross-contamination. I noticed Dunkaroos also took the milk ingredients
out but there is a Kosher symbol (with the D) to indicate manufacturing of
dairy on the equipment! At least the products do not have dairy in them
anymore - one less chance of a problem at school.
