Product Snapshot: Kids of all ages look forward to having a treat when they get home from school or work. For those with nut allergies, being able to enjoy a tasty nut-free snack can be challenging, however. Skeeter Snacks Chocolate Chip Minis, available at retail next month, offers those with a nut allergy a totally nut-free treat option. In addition, the all-natural cookies are made with whole grain and contain no trans-fat or high-fructose corn syrup, which people without nut allergies will appreciate, too.
