If you have kids, you know that peanuts are increasingly verboten in schools. The food-allergy rate has risen at an alarming clip in recent decades, and, according to the largest allergy-activism group, the peanut-allergy rate tripled to 3 million — 4 percent of the school-age population.
PostTV and PostEverything are happy to furnish the answer, just in time for the new school year. We recruited our colleagues’ children to taste-test the proliferating nut-butter alternatives – almond butter, cashew butter, walnut butter, macadamia butter, even sunflower-seed butter – now available at a price-gouging grocery store near you. The resulting cuteness doesn’t just melt your face; it also provides a public service for the back-to-school shopping rush.
