Post new topic

Hello all, I've been in Jeddah and the Middle East for over 54 years and lately my son has become sensitive to peanuts. Does anyone know if there are peanuts in Tahanah especially that of Neakheal or of any other site that I can ask??  Many thanks all!! Dollygk  P.S.  are you enjoying the heat   LOL  I am so ready for the 2 weeks of Spring, as I call the Jeddah winters   hehe

Do you mean Tahinah??

GuestPoster24

Yes... but on the bottle it is spelled the other way...

never mind   ;)

There are 2 ways to make Tahinah

1- Fully made from Sesame seeds
2- Made from Sesame seeds + Peanuts

Can you read the ingredients on the bottle to figure it out?

Or can you post a picture of it here; in case its fully written in Arabic....

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly!! On the side of the bottle it states that it contains 100% sesame but I'm wondering if the factory might also deal with peanuts. If so there might be some cross contamination... Dolly
