Yes they did I am unsure of what kind of nut but I am sure they did.Now the maker of "Mars Bars" used the same surfaces in the making off all their candy. Now they are learning the severity of peanut allergy's and changing the way they make their proudct so that people with peanut allergies can buy their product.
If you have a food allergy it can happen easily. A food allergy is when the body's immune system reacts against a specific component in a food that is not normally harmful to the body.
Peanut allergies specifically can be easily triggered.
About 1.5 million people in the United States are severely allergic to peanuts and 50 to 100 people die every year because of a peanut allergy.
Common symptoms of a food allergy include flushing, wheezing, hives or a skin rash.
More severe reactions can include vomiting, difficulty breathing, a drop in blood pressure, loss of consciousness, and even a very severe reaction called anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock, which can result in death. That's what happened to Desforges.
Many people with peanut allergies do tend to have severe cases, but you can have an allergic reaction from a kiss with any severe food allergy.
Peanuts and shellfish are very common allergies. Other foods that make up most food allergies are: milk, eggs, wheat, soy, and other tree nuts such as walnuts, pecans and almonds. The best way to avoid a food allergy is to avoid the food that causes it.

They used to be made in the same factories and with the same equipment as Snickers bars, which do have nuts. For some people with nut allergies, that is enough to make them very sick.

they WERE made on the same line as snickers
so they could have a TRACE of peanut in them if the production line was not waashed down properly, now they are made on a dedicated mars line!
