My toddler has started 3hrs of daycare a week to get her out of the house and expose her to others and I was pretty surprised to find out about the nut ban that is pretty much everywhere these days. I didn't have to deal with all of this with her older sister. Nuts, and peanuts in particular, are probably the healthiest food around, especially when cost, availability, and environmental impact are considered. These policies MIGHT save a few lives, yet they eliminate great benefit overall.
@daniel - 15 years ago, when my son was 5years old, he had a violent reaction to a peanut additive in Neapolitan ice-cream! It almost killed him! He has had to carry an EpiPen with him ever since and he can sense, with a tickle in his throat, if people have been eating peanuts/ peanut butter etc in the same room. So personally speaking, the policy has been a life saver for my son ... but when he leaves home next year, the first thing I'm buying is a huge pot of crunchy peanut butter!!! 🤣
@daniel - it's fine... I know you didn't mean it that way. Believe me, I love nuts and especially peanuts in butter!! 🤣
