Yes, the AD lectured me on why I should switch my DC to "sun butter" instead of peanut butter when all I asked her was ," if my child has to bring his own lunch for her visit day, are there any allergies to peanuts?" as that is what I usually pack is PB&J. Her response to my question was to lecture me on the health benefits of soy butter. eye roll.

I didn't have the heart to tell her that soy butter is genetically modified, but had I spent 5 minutes on that we would have been "in" for sure. LOL

We did not apply for our DC.[/quote]

Actually, sun butter is made from sunflower seeds (not soybeans) and it contains no GMOs.  [/quote]

Oh, in that case the AD should just continue right along trying to shove it down every parent's throat as part of her "healthy food choices sanctioned by the GDS admissions team". Yuk.[/quote]

It's a question of credibility.  When a poster asserts something that's just plain wrong and yet does so in a way that's condescending and dismissive, the thought crosses your mind that that poster isn't really a trustworthy source of information.  And when the same poster tells a personal story in which she can't seem to decide/remember the gender of her own DC, then you wonder whether the anecdote is for real or whether this is just someone with an axe to grind making stuff up.
