I just bought a package of Peanut Butter crackers from the vending machine (instead of the Snickers bar that I really wanted) and I was struck by the thought “It’s a good thing that the person who sits next to me doesn’t have a deadly peanut allergy.” And then I thought “I’ve never worked anywhere where we were warned in advance not to eat peanuts or peanut products because of allergies.” So where do all those kids who can’t even breath in the scent of a peanut working? Do people outgrow those allergies enough that they don’t have to declare the office a peanut-free zone?
Mmmm. Peanut butter.
