They could KILL a student with a peanut allergy doing something like this. Do you mean to tell me in this day and age a school can not give a child a meal if they have no money on their card? Where is the compassion? How can a child learn on an empty stomach? I understand they may have to do that with parents who are complete deadbeats, but why embarrass and starve the kids? How humiliating and inhumane. Not to mention potentiall dangerous!

What peanut recall?
So guess I'm good to go.
I suppose that's what I get for turning off the news because sick of petty politics. Something really important and I miss it. HA HA HA
But I'm still here and breathing. My only peanut item I eat is natural peanut butter.
I have OD'd on peanut butter fudge
I don't know why I do this every year. I just went downstairs for a drink and loaded up on smoked ham with a peanut butter fudge chaser. A moment on the lips, forever on the hips...
peanut butter and pickles . . also.
peanut butter and Miracle Whip. . Also chocolate ice cream with uncooked oats mixed in it.
We keep no peanut products in our home
Hubby only eats the natural peanut butter and it tastes yucky. Other than that, nothing else in the house contains peanut butter and he had his way before the scare.
It was a peanut butter recall.

Peanut butter fudge recipe
 When I was little my mom used to make the world's best peanut butter fudge. She used brown sugar in it. There was a quickie fudge recipe in the Mrs Clause cookbook that called for just chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, was thinking about trying something with that. Does anybody have a good brown sugar peanut butter fudge recipe?

Dog allergies/dog book
Don't know what kind of a dog but my sister had a Red Setter that had thyroid problems and also an allergy to wheat and so they had to buy special food without wheat which was only "Friskies" and that did help to cure the itching. Oprah had a repeat on about the Dog Whisper and showed how he cured several dogs of being aggressive around other dogs. His book is wonderful. My neighbor got it and it worked for them. Have been luck with my dog, she is now 16 which is very old for her mix -- chow/lab and she has never been aggressive. Did not have any puppy problems with chewing or barking. Of course she got her walks every day of over 2 miles at a time and I think that exercise is the biggest help. Never crated her either and if and when I get another one will not do that to a dog. Mine is now deaf and partially blind but still walks up to the park three times a day, slow but does it. Never an accident in the house. No medications except aspirin. She will probably outlive me.
Bleh! We have allergies, so the less, the better!
I like Sam's club in the big bucket, though; it smells like I remember detergent smelling when I was a kid. It must be an old fragrance.
We use the Oxyclean ball and love it. Not much scent left, though, but in our house that's a good thing.
Dogs will do this when they have allergies...sm
which they can develop at any age. Take the dog to the vet for an evaluation and if the dog has allergies there are lots of medications for this available - even over-the-counter!
previous cat allergies
My husband almost didn't date me because I had cats, and he was allergic to cats. Fast-forward, and once desensitized, he'd give you a limb before he'd hand over one of the cats.
Incidentally, my allergy shots have literally everything possible packed into them including cats. They don't bother me at all. Something to think about it.
Actually, I am eating B&R peanut btr & chocolate ice cream in a waffle bowl...such a...

Big problem for people with allergies!! sm
Wondering if those who take their pets think of those people. They didn't go to a store where they thought they'd be exposed and now have to suffer because others think they are above common courtesy and rules? Shame.
Pit bulls are very prone to allergies.
From a little research I did, have you tried a high quality lamb kibble yet? That's what most of the sites are recommending for pit bulls. This is one site, but it is down at the bottom of the page.

There are other antihistamines that are used for dogs besides Benadryl (never use one with a decongestant, of course). Tavist is one I've used. You may find a 12-hour or 24-hour one more beneficial, but do check with your vet for dosing. We actually got an air cleaner for Misha at one point, though her problems didn't turn out to be allergies.
Allergies/headaches from wine?

Allergies possible? I lived at the dermatologist - sm
for a couple years, would get this horrible rash on my neck, hurt, oozed, itched, totally sucked. Dr. suggested I do my own allergy testing at home. I put a spot of shampoo, my ferret's hair, body soap, clothes detergent, etc. under seperate band-aids on inside of my forearm and left them on untouched and dry for 48 hours then removed. I had a horrible red rash/reaction to my shampoo. (was also allergic to 1 of my ferrets, the one that still had its musk glands. So I stopped using that brand of shampoo and it cleared right up. Happened again a few years later and switched shampoos again with complete resolution of the rash. Luckily it has not happened since. So it could be as simple as exposure to something he uses every day or on frequent basis, you just need to figure out what. My DH became allergic to Tide about 10 years ago after they changed their Bleach Alternative formula, got a rash all over his body from it, obviously we don't use that brand anymore. Good luck.
be careful if you have environmental allergies
my son has severe environmental allergies and we were told to never hang out his laundry as pollen can attach itself to the clothing and make his symptoms worse. We are also to run an air conditoner, not use fans and never open the windows to help cut down on allergens. So much for frugality in our home!!! :(
Have you ever been tested for food allergies?
What is the one thing that you have at each meal consistently? A drink? Some type of bread?
Start keeping a diary and after a couple of weeks, show it to your doctor to see what he/she thinks.
We've been reading up on dog allergies
and it seems that there are 3 distinct types of dog allergy: to dander, saliva, and urine.
We both think that he is allergic to the saliva since he has intense itching when a dog licks him and he remembers itching intensely when he was a teen when their poodle would lick his neck. He has had a scratch test and he is allergic to dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses, among other things, but he is most allergic to dogs.
It seems that no dog is truly nonallergenic, and dogs like the Bichon Frise that are labeled as hypoallergenic are labeled so because they are groomed more frequently, thus ridding the dog of excess dander. Some dogs are high dander dogs, and one of those is the pug and of course what I want most, a dachschund.
I guess the next step will be to find out if the scratch test was for dog dander or saliva. He's probably allergic to both.  Gosh I want a dog but it's not looking good for me.
This annoying little cough I have from allergies or cold
Can't tell which it is. But it has hung on for a long time, and today really driving me nuts. Glad no one is home, they'd think this is the "house of tuberculosis!" My own cough is today's pet peeve!
Is it allergies from all the pollen? Do you live in the South? nm

Hi; Oh DEFINITELY familial/genetic components to allergies/asthma....sm
Allergies run very strongly on my mom's side of the family; there are four of us, my brother had severe hay fever/sinus problems all his life, my sisters have the same, my sister Bev has had asthma which she outgrew, lucky thing, and I started out with just generic allergies that turned into allergic diathesis, which makes me allergic to SO MANY foods, animals, plants, trees, environment substances, chemicals, meds, molds, dust mites, etc., severe asthma, and now my docs want me to consider sinus surgery for polyps and a deviated septum. Also, allergies stem from the immune system, and I also have Sjogren's, RA, and SLE, all of which are autoimmune. If you go on some of the national information sites for allergy and asthma, they have some very indepth articles on the familial/genetic link to allergies. But please do not despair regarding children, etc. Sometimes one sibling will be mildly allergic, but another will miss it entirely, it is not a dominant disorder. I have three kids, and they are hardly affected at all, just a bit of pollen sensitivity in the Spring. Hope you are doing well!
