We're giving him peanut butter!!

Yea, remember that girl that died after kissing her boyfriend that had eaten peanuts or peanut butter.....

It turns out that wasn't why she died, it had nothing to do with her boyfriend's kiss. I now, of course, cannot find the follow-up story, but it didn't get nearly as much play in the press.

I feel like a whole new world of food is open to us now

good news!

I wonder why peanut butter allergies are so common now?

[Sirrahsim]

I have a feeling that Google has a lot to do with it I know there are a lot of people out there who might see a teeny tiny rash and determine for themselvers "OH! S/He's allergic!!"

just a thought though

Missy, I agree with you! I think people say, "Oh, I am allergic" when what they might mean is "Oh, I have a food sensitivity". I had a few people nearly freak out when they heard I was giving Jones PB at such a young age. It usually isn't an issue in an family without a history, and thankfully, it was not an issue.


Maresche- Jonah won't eat cold cheese! Or, mac n' cheese, come to think of it. He only eats grilled cheese. I wish I could get him to eat cheese, it just opens up one more area of food choices, and building. LOL, the list of what he eats hasn't really expanded past the initial five foods he ate- yogart, PB, grilled cheese, pizza and fruit.
