When I was in school (K-12), my mom would send me with a brown bag lunch every day, usually a peanut butter sandwich. She had all these variations to convince me it wasn’t the same thing all the time. PB on white, PB on wheat, PB and jelly, PB and lettuce, even PB and butter. I don’t think she ever tried bananas. But if early exposure prevents peanut allergies, I’m safe. I also shouldn’t have any allergies to Hostess cupcakes, although I no longer have any desire to eat one.

They have to be eaten every day to maintain tolerance or you can go back to the beginning. In this way, if someone accidentally ingests something with nuts, the reaction is rather mild.

If the kid gets anaphylactic they better learn to read the package. If they're so allergic they can't be in the same room with a peanut then in the long run they're just screwed. My son has a shellfish allergy. My wife drilled it into his head: he has to read the labels, know what counts as a shellfish, check for the cross contamination warnings etc. He carries the Epi-pen at all times in a backpack.....it's his own little Jr EDC bag now where he has his pocket knife and first aid kit. He's fine. If anything he's over-prepared. People get all, "oh shellfish allergy, don't worry I'll change everything to accommodate your little snowflake." and I'm annoyed like why did we bother training the snowflake not to be a snowflake if you're just gonna treat him like a snowflake? Skittles seems safe right, but some mofo's are allergic to red dye. I'm betting that red skittle ain't naturally red. You can't take care of everybody.

However, I thought: a) There probably won’t be trick-or-treaters this year b) With my luck I’d give one to a kid with peanut allergies c) I’d end up eating them I usually give out the little bags of Skittles, although one year I gave out superhero Pez dispensers, the kids thought I was some crazy old coot. Last year I ordered some little Halloween coloring books and crayons, my son thought that was so lame he refused to hand them out and got out the Skittles. I’m still tempted to go back and get the little Paydays, they were so cute. I didn’t have my phone or I would have taken a photo. Strange the store just had Paydays and Snickers. They must hate kids with peanut allergies. Or they believe in real candy that kids actually like, not ridiculous stuff like those Necco wafers. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
