This is the type of issue where good allergen verification records are needed. Are there other products run in the facility with peanuts and tree nuts, and if so, were good sanitation and other allergen procedures followed. What about supplier control? Do any of the suppliers handle peanut and tree nuts that could have accidentally made their way into a non-nut ingredient.

Clif Bar & Company is initiating a voluntary recall of CLIF® BUILDER'S® Bar Chocolate Mint flavor, and CLIF Kid Zbar® Protein Chocolate Mint and CLIF Kid Zbar® Protein Chocolate Chip flavors due to possible presence of undeclared peanuts and some tree nuts, including almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, pecans, walnuts and coconuts. Clif Bar & Company is taking this precautionary safety step for people who are allergic to peanuts and these listed tree nuts. People with an allergy to peanuts and these specific tree nuts run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction.
