ALLERGEN/SPECIAL
DIET INFO
Pam's Pantry
understands the importance of knowing the presence of
certain ingredients in food products. Growing up with lots
of
Allergies and having family members with severe
reactions
to some types of foods has given us a clear understanding
of
how frustrating it can be to find you are consuming
items
you choose not to, or, how fearful it can be for a person
with
severe allergies to consume the wrong thing.
Therefore,
this
page is devoted to a listing of our products that contain
some
of the more commonly known food allergens. We
have
made
every attempt to list our products that may or may not
fit
special dietary needs. Most of the categories listed below
are
based on specific questions that we have previously
received. If you have a question or need to know specific
information on an ingredient of a product due to allergies or
special dietary needs, please contact us directly. We will be
happy
to address all requests and will also be happy to add this
additional info to this list.
SPECIAL
NOTE:
Many of our ingredients come from facilities that also process
products containing peanuts, tree nuts, soybeans, milk, eggs,
fish,
crustaceans, shellfish and wheat ingredients.
COMMON
ALLERGENS:
MSG - The following dip mixes
contain MSG, however, depending on your
tolerance
for this, the only mix that we directly add the MSG to is the
Right
on Ranch. The other 3 mixes listed below have trace amounts as
they
are added into a flavor by the supplier.
Right on
Ranch
Mellie's
Mexi Mix
Pam's Hammy
Onion
Bacon &
Tomato
SEAFOOD - Currently our dip
mixes do not contain any seafood products but, as
stated
above, some of our ingredients may come from a facility that
processes
fish or crustaceans.
NUTS - We do not have any dip
mixes that contain nuts and do not have nuts of any
kind
on the premises. However, as stated above, some of our
ingredients
may come from a facility that processes peanuts or tree nuts.
GLUTEN - We have received
requests for Gluten content and are in the process of
determining which mixes contain Gluten. I have found some helpful
information and will continue to work on this. To date, most persons who
have
Gluten allergies are very aware of the types of foods they need to
stay away from and have been able to determine which of our mixes
they
should avoid. Please call us directly if you have any questions in
regards to a specific dip mix so that we may be able to determine if
it
contains gluten.
SPECIAL
DIETARY NEEDS
SUGAR/DEXTROSE - The
following dip mixes contain sugar or dextrose. If the product
is
listed here, it contains either sugar or dextrose. I have noted
"dextrose"
next to those products that contain only dextrose. Also, most contain
only
a trace as it has been added to a flavoring by the supplier and
not
directly by Pam's Pantry. I have included a "T" for trace if it
has
not been directly added to the dip mix:

SALT - The following dip
mixes do contain salt. If you need to watch your sodium,
please
contact us and we will check the actual salt content. We have not
directly
added salt to these mixes, but most have a small trace of
salt. For instance, any products that we use Bacon Bits or Cheese in will
contain
salt as it is found in the Bacon Bits and the Cheese Powder we use. Many
of
our customers are able to consume the small amount that is found in
our
mixes. I have placed a "T", for trace, beside any mix that we have not
directly
added salt to. Please contact us directly if you have any
questions in
regards to this.

DAIRY - Very few of our dip
mixes contain dairy products. However, many of them are
mixed
with Sour Cream and/or Cream Cheese. All of the mixes can be mixed
with
soy based products. If your real adventurous, check our recipe
section
for directions on how to make your own soy sour cream. The
following

vegetarian diet, there are no dip mixes that should be
excluded. All of our products that contain bacon or ham are made from
soy
based imitation products and are safe for you to consume.
