School Board Bans Peanut Butter Substitute

http://www.canada.com/health/peanut+butter+substitutes+sticks+parents+cr...

In my opinion, this is going too far. Parents of allergic children should be happy the school board is peanut free to begin with. I could understand if it was banned because it is not considered a well-balanced meal (this is a topic for another post altogether!). I understand that the two products may smell similar, and cause cnfusion, however tf the parents are writing 'peanut free', then it should be acceptable.

Thoughts?

I think this is going WAY to

I think this is going WAY to far. I actually don't believe in a food ban at all. It's not fair to ban peanut butter when there are kids anaphylactic to dairy & eggs etc.
