I've always had a feeling it was a bunch of bullshit too. I have a relative that won't let her kids eat many common foods. The older child had some sort of sever reaction as a small child and the younger kid can't eat it just in case. Also, not letting peanut butter in to a school is just craziness. I remember in kindergarden our daily snack always involved peanut butter. It's a perfect food for a growing kid. How else you going to get a kid to eat celery?
