FAQ

What steps are taken to make sure that Skeeter Nut Free™ snacks are safe for people with tree nut and peanut allergies (TPA)?

We have a very strict Nut-Free Protocol. Our ingredients and manufacturing facility are tree nut and peanut free and all products are tested for TPA prior to being released for sale.

Why do you focus on TPA and not all of the Top 8 Food Allergens?

The Company was started because each of the founders has a child with tree nut and peanut allergies. Their firsthand knowledge of the danger and prevalence of TPA, the rapid growth rate, and the sacrifices in taste and affordability that families often have to make led us to remain focused tree nuts and peanuts. We believe that in order to keep those with TPA safe and included, products need to appeal to the people around them as well. By focusing on tree nuts and peanuts, we are able to make products that taste great and are affordable.
