peanut allergies

After reading the SunButter posts, I decided to order it. My son is 9 and very nervous about eating new foods. He asks me three times if something is safe or not. It took him a long time to try Vermont Nut Free skimmers because he was worried they made a mistake and put the wrong label on them. I bought the SunButter as just something different for him to try. Plus it would be something for his siblings and parents to try as well. He did say it would be cool to bring it to school and freak his friends out. But I'm a little worried about someone switching his lunch/sandwich in the lunchroom. We'll try it and see. SunButter also sells sunflower seeds which are nut contamination free. My son plays baseball and all the kids eat sunflower seeds so he is looking forward to trying them for the first time.

It took a lot of convincing for my dd to try Sunbutter too. She kept saying "Are you sure mom???" and reading the label over and over. I guess it's a good thing she's so cautious, but it did make me feel a bit bad...as if I would *ever let her eat something that was unsafe.

My son does this--- it makes me feel bad, like he doesn't trust me. He's so cautious. And, there are times, when it's something he doesn't feel totally comfortable (like ice cream at a party at his cousin's house the other day, he knows we only do Breyers vanilla, Philly Swirl novelties, Rita's and Blue Bell at Outback, but this brand listed all of the allergens in bold, and I felt pretty safe with it)--- he refused to eat it even though I told him he could. It makes me feel bad, but then I'm glad that he's so careful.
