Must Love Bananas Allergen Note*
I asked Must Love about allergen protocols, and they sent the following response:
We are managed on equipment that sometimes processes milk, wheat, tree nuts, eggs, soy, corn, and peanuts, so if your audience has severe allergies, it would be safer for them to not consume our product.
But when I specifically asked again about their cleaning processes, they responded:
Our plant has a strict policy of thoroughly washing before and after each production run of our products!

Disappointed
December 4, 2019
Very disappointed with the newer bars. I’ve been purchasing the Chocolate for some time and they were decadent, satisfying, and delicious. The new Chocolate and Strawberry are NOT…..Worth the price!
