Suggested Snack List (as of 09/2015)

This list is provided to guide families who are donating or volunteering to bring snacks for an entire classroom.

In an attempt to limit potential nut exposure for students who have a severe allergy to peanut or tree nuts, parents are asked to use this suggested snack list when providing a snack for classroom or special activities. Please choose one product from the following list. We suggest that children with severe food allergies provide their own snack to eat.

Please be nut-aware: • For a classroom snack, a product that may contain traces of nuts, made on shared equipment or is made in a facility that processes nuts is NOT acceptable for limiting the potential of nut exposure; therefore, please purchase only the listed brand names, as these have been researched to be reliable for labeling. • Always read each ingredient and allergen statement before purchasing because product ingredients and packaging may change. • All snacks must come in the original, unopened packaging. • NO homemade food items.
