3 million Americans report being allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, or both. We have all seen the horrible stories of children with peanut allergies having allergic reactions and losing their lives due to accidents involving exposure to peanuts. People with severe peanut allergies can exhibit symptoms such as inflammation, itching, hives, swelling, and in some cases, anaphylaxis in which the air passages are blocked and the circulatory system can collapse leading to death if not treated immediately. Some school systems have made peanut-free zones in their cafeterias, or have eliminated peanut products completely from their schools. WOWBUTTER is a peanut free, gluten free, tree nut free, and dairy free product that is a peanut butter replacement product. One of my co-workers son's (who is 3 years old) loves this product so much that he asks for a spoonful of it at night as a snack. I do not have a peanut allergy and love traditional peanut butter, so it was difficult for me to have an unbiased opinion, but I thought it was just okay. However, if I had a peanut allergy or if my kid's schools were peanut-free zones, I do think this would be a decent alternative if placed on some bread with some jelly or banana slices. It certainly maintained the smooth, creamy texture of regular peanut butter. And from all of the sampling of the product, the kids who tried the WOWBUTTER were happy with it, but the adults were stuck in their ways of regular peanut butter. The really cool thing is that on the website, you can request a free sample for your daycare, school, or camp. There is also a lot of resources for speaking to school boards about peanut allergies and allergy facts in general. Thank you WOWBUTTER for letting my review panel and I sample your products! I am glad you are such a great advocate for people with peanut allergies!
