"peanut butter sandwich" news and stories

When I was little and made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich every day to take in my lunch, I hated it when peanut butter would get in to the jar with the jam, or vice versa. I also didn't want to have to wipe off or wash the knife halfway through making my sandwich because it seemed inefficient and, to maximize my sleeping time, I wanted a fast sandwich. As a result, I tried to use the exact amount of peanut butter or jelly, so as to have none left on the knife. At 8 years old, I thought this seemed pretty clever, but  having one of these dual-sided peanut butter and jelly spreaders would have solved my problems completely. The color-coded sides enable you to dip to your heart's content without mixing the contents of the jars. They're $11.99 and, to justify the expense on the silicone kitchen tool, you can use them for anything from buttering toast to spreading frosting on cupcakes.

The girl who supposedly died of an allergic reaction caused by the exposure to peanut butter after kissing her boyfriend did not die from her allergy. The coroner who examined the girl said that the cause of Christina Desforges' death was something different, though he would not yet reveal what that cause was. The girl reported feeling unwell, which prompted her friends to call an ambulance. She collapsed before it arrived and died four days later. The coroner said that he came forward to prevent an allergy group from using her death as the central case in an awareness campaign.
