When I was handing out candy on Hallowe'en, I bought a 90-pack of Reese's Pieces, Peanut Butter Cups, and Mr. Big (with the thinking that I don't like Mr. Big so I'll get rid of those first, and then whatever I have leftover I'll be happy with). This little kid (after ringing my doorbell 31 times) asks me "ARE THESE PEANUT FREE?". WHA? Peanut Free? I don't have to worry about that shit! I said "No, actually they're peanut FULL." Then he yells "MOM! THIS CANDY IS NOT PEANUT FREE!" which made me feel like some kind of asshole.
When I was growing up, I don't think I knew one single kid that was allergic to peanuts. NOT ONE. Now apparently it's so bad that kids can't even bring peanut butter sandwiches to school. If it was like this back when I was in school I wouldn't be able to BRING a lunch. Peanut butter sandwiches are one of the best things about life! Now kids can't bring them to school?? What the hell happened? I think it's all part of the pussification of America's kids, but that's just me. I'll continue to eat peanuts and enjoy my life. If hell freezes over and somehow I have a kid I'm going to make sure they eat peanuts and enjoy their life too. VIVA THE PEANUT.
I am a baby, and I love peanuts.
It's the pussification of all children that is a global pandemic. First its peanut butter, soon it will be jam.
