[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get back to me when you can fix the following:

- Nut bans in schools
- Inability to refrigerate snacks (we aren't even allows to send snacks in an insulated bag -- lunch, yes, but snacks have to be separate and in a disposable container or a clear plastic reusable bag)
- What to do when I send a healthy snack in and my kid won't eat it because all the other kids have crackers or chips and so that's all she wants

I tried healthy snacks for a long time but they just came home uneaten and my kid complained. I gave up, now I send in bags of teddy grahams or animal crackers. It's not what I want but she actually eats them and it takes the edge off until lunch.

I don't control the school environment and have to work within what it offers. The environment isn't conducive to healthy snacks.[/quote]

I have never more wholeheartedly agreed with a post before!

Yeah, the food allergy kids are the reason your kids eat cr*p!!!

Grow up.  Tell your kid they can eat what you send or wait until lunch.[/quote]

Nut bans don’t actually keep kids with nut allergies safer.[/quote]

Public schools don’t have this anyway. I’m a teacher and have a nut allergic kid. Rarely a kid will have a severe nut allergy and that specific classroom will be nut free but the school and cafeteria still won’t. And even that is rare. Also, absolutely no one is banning ice packs or thermoses. [/quote]
