When you think of allergies...I am sure peanuts come to mind. Contrary to popular belief, peanuts are not nuts! They belong to a category of vegetables called legumes. While legume allergies are common, same as tree nut allergies, they get a fraction of the recognition. I want to change that.
You can help change that too. Check out our petition at https://chng.it/9JgxQH24 |

You may not have noticed...
but these Rosemary & Olive oil Triscuits™ contain pea protein! Although they are not labeled as a "protein" product or containing legumes, pea protein can be seen as the 8th ingredient. As someone with a legume allergy, I've learned to always read the label of "protein" marketed foods, since pea protein and chickpea protein are popularly used. The unpredictability of pea protein on this ingredient list makes this product, along with many others, extremely dangerous. |
