Just how did we get from warning labels on products containing peanuts
to a worldwide ban on them?


A number of groups (the allergic and "assorted nutters") have called for
banning peanuts on US airline flights, and several airlines have apparently
decided to go along rather than risk confrontation and bad mouthing (or law
suits)


Peanuts are different than other food allergies as the allergen can be passed
to the sufferer via airborne particles. My sister had one kid in her class who
was so allergic she couldn't grade papers in her kitchen for fear off passing
something on. Many schools now have Peanut Butter free sections of cafeterias
to control the issue. Airplanes have terrible air that is constantly
recirculated. I'd rather have the nasty, dry pretzels than the kid next to be
stop breathing.
