If
you
are
allergic
to
nuts,
you
CAN
NOT
EAT
ANYTHING
IN
THIS
STORE
WITHOUT
RISKING
YOUR
LIFE.
A
serious
nightmare
for
food
allergy
sufferers.
I
shared
this
review
initially
for
the
pinecrest
location,
however
-
I
was
told
they
use
the
same
baker
and
not
allergy
friendly
practices
at
this
store
as
well.
I
am
here
to
warn
people
so
they
won’t
die
from
eating
at
heartwood.
This
doesn’t
look
like
a
peanut
butter
cookie,
but
it
is.
There
is
no
sign
indicating
this
whatsoever
and
no
indication
of
nuts
in
this
cookie.
I
only
knew
it
was
a
peanut
butter
cookie
because
they
had
free
samples
out
-
without
a
sign.
I
asked
what
they
were
and
they
told
me
it
was
a
peanut
butter
cookie
sample.
I
told
them
how
dangerous
this
was…Free,
unmarked
samples
of
one
of
the
biggest
allergens
worldwide.
And
then
you
look
in
the
case,
and
the
peanut
butter
cookie
is
literally
touching
another
“peanut
free”
dessert.
This
is
cross
contamination
and
a
SERIOUS
food
safety
issue.
I
mentioned
this
yesterday
morning
to
the
barista,
who
responded
in
a
way
that
made
me
even
more
concerned.
She
stated
that
when
the
pastries
are
all
delivered
each
morning
-
they
are
all
just
thrown
together
in
the
same
box.
They
had
no
sign
or
disclaimer
anywhere
in
the
store
mentioning
this.
If
you
are
allergic
to
nuts,
you
CAN
NOT
EAT
ANYTHING
IN
THIS
STORE
WITHOUT
RISKING
YOUR
LIFE.
I
can
not
emphasize
enough
how
quickly
this
could
harm
someone,
especially
since
the
peanut
butter
cookie
has
no
sign
saying
what
it
is/
no
visible
indication
of
there
being
nuts
in
there.
There
is
no
disclaimer
anywhere
in
the
store
about
this
very
serious
cross
contamination
issue.
1
out
of
every
10
people
in
the
US
have
a
lethal
food
allergy.
Of
those,
75%
are
allergic
to
nuts.
Heartwood
is
playing
with
fire
here.
Since
there
is
no
disclaimer
anywhere,
you
could
sue
them
if
it
turned
badly.
However,
I’d
be
more
worried
about
risking
someone’s
life.
Heartwood
obviously
doesn’t
care
about
this.
I’ve
been
a
loyal
patron
of
this
business
up
until
now.
This
is
serious
food
safety
negligence.
Until
this
can
be
fixed,
I
won’t
be
coming
back.
