Greetings,
Actually, you'll also want to avoid ANY candies made by companies which
also make peanut or other nut-based candy. This will include Reese's,
Mars Candy Company (they make peanut-butter Twix), and many other candy
companies. Peanut oil is almost impossible to completely remove from a
vat, so there will almost always be some remnant of the peanut oil, which
then carries into non-nut-based candies.
