If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
"May Contain" statement NEW FOR 2025 (Progressive rollout):
- In 2025 we will be progressively updating our labels and product pictures with our new label that now include a "May Contain" statement.
- The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) dictates that "Cross-contamination statements may be declared by food manufacturers and importers".
- That said, we hold ourselves to much higher standards than the CFIA and Health Canada rules oblige. Most companies do not and you will only rarely see "May Contain" statements.
- If there is a remote chance that there might be cross-contamination of a priority allergen, we will declare it on the product label in the form of a "May Contain" statement.
- A "May Contain" statement does not mean that the allergen is present in the product, it is simple a precautionary measure we take to stay the most transparent possible.
- If an allergen is present in the product, it will be clearly declared in the ingredients.
- For example our Quebec made flours come from a mill that makes both oat and wheat flours. Since both allergens are present in the mill we automatically declare the possibility of cross-contamination even if all precautionary measures are taken.
- Only priority allergens are declared in the "May Contain" statement, which are:
- Cereals & Grains: Triticale, Barley, Oats, Rye, Wheat.
- Tree Nuts: Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Cashews, Hazelnuts, Macadamia Nuts, Pecans, Pine Nuts, Pistachios, Walnuts.
- Peanuts
- Sesame
- Eggs
- Milk
- Soy
- Mustard
- Fish
- Seafood: Crustaceans, Molluscs.
- Sulphites
- Priority allergens are decided by government agencies and health boards. To read more on the subject see "Common food allergens - Priority allergens" published by the CFIA.

Our organic jackfruit slices come from an exotic fruit grown in tropical regions around the world. Weighing up to a whopping 80 pounds (35 kilograms), the fruit is very heavy and its tree is one of the largest tree fruits in the world. This green or yellow spiky fruit has a sweet or savory taste depending on how you prepare it. Both the flesh of the fruit and seed pods can be consumed either ripe or cooked. Jackfruit is especially sweet once dried and won't lose the nutritional values in the raw fruit.
Consuming dried jackfruit is a great, and all-natural, way to energize your day. This is because of the minerals, phytonutrients, electrolytes, fiber, vitamins, proteins, glucose and sucrose, among other rich nutrients found in jackfruit. Rich in Vitamins A, C and D; as well as calcium and iron. The fruit is also great at building up bones and enhancing bone density due to its high potassium content.
How Dry are they?
- Dried fruits are dehydrated to various degrees to match end use. These are best for homemade energy bars, meat stuffing, baked goodies.
- They have 10-15% humidity making them still soft and chewy. They are not crispy so snacking on them depends on how you enjoy their chewy texture.
