For years, peanuts and tree nuts have been considered off-limits in school snacks and lunches as a key precaution to protect those with life-threatening allergies. However, as one Canadian school lifts that restriction, is the tide beginning to turn away from specific food bans?

    Those allergies are not nearly as common or severe. Also, someone won’t eat a snack of shellfish and not wipe up after while nuts are constantly consumed by people who won’t wash hands or surfaces when finished.

    I am not allergic to anything food related really, but I have no problem with these restrictions, I can eat those foods in my home or a restaurant. I care about other people so it doesn’t matter to me, but a selfish person would get very upset by these rules.
