As a father of 2 kids in school which is peanut free I am first was a little pissed that they could not take PB sandwiches to school since I thought that I am tired of making changes to accommodate single people. Enough is enough I said.
But then I realized that today my kids don’t have allergies what about tomorrow or what if it is my future grand kids. This does not affect me in any way and it is not hard to find food that does not contain nuts. There are even snacks with “No Nuts” on it so I buy those items.
At work there is a scent free policy, again I thought what a pain for only a few people, but then I am not those few and I don’t run the risk of having to take a needle should I have an issue. I needed to open my mind to look at it from their point of view. It is not hard to not wear any scent nor is it really hard not to give your kids peanuts for lunch.
I must admit that not every single item is nut free as there seems to be traces of nuts in everything these days but I do my best.
