Divvies

[GoofyFairie]

Hi all. Has anyone been recently that knows if Divvies products are still available at Main Street Bakery? I am specifically interested in the Caramel Corn. I know the fresh popped popcorn in the buckets is not safe for peanut allergies, so was hopeful for a substitute. Thanks!

I haven't seen any Divvies products in a while but the bagged popcorn is Rocky Mountain popcorn.

Can you share where you got the info that the freshly popped popcorn isn't safe for peanut allergies? I've been eating that popcorn for the last two years with no issue and I'm allergic to peanuts (thankfully, my reactions aren't life threatening so far but I do always have a reaction of some kind). I never saw anything on the popcorn ingredient list that looked dangerous but maybe things have changed since last September? I definitely would like to be sure I don't order it if it has. Thanks!

I believe that the oil used to pop the popcorn is made in a factory that also produces peanut oil. It may not be a concern for you, but my children are contact reactive as well as anaphylactic so I am very cautious of what they eat. They seem to be highly sensitive. I have not confirmed this with Special Diets lately.

Thank you for the info. I have not heard of that brand and will check into it.

Thank you for sharing, I understand that concern for sure! You can never be too safe especially with dangerous possible reactions. Even though I haven't had issues in the past, I'm going to look into this more because I don't want to risk it either.

We haven't seen Divvies at the parks for quite some time. We place an order with Divvies a few weeks before our trip and have them deliver a box of goodies to the resort/hotel for us to enjoy during our holiday. Such a treat! (We cannot order Divvies at home - international shipping is prohibitively expensive.)

They can have you order arrive on a specific day - just call and let them know. They need at least two week's notice for this service, though.

Thanks Spacecanada! I hadn't thought of that!
