Here's an example of PeeCee mentalness from my own side of the pond.

Eight-year-olds forced to pay £5 to attend a Mosque and an 'Islam awareness workshop', or they will have a 'racial discrimination' note attached to their personal files, following them throughout the course of their school career:

She may be allergic to peanuts. This is a serious business. Some people can get a life-threatening allergic reaction to peanuts in any form, even dust or minute crumbs.

This kind of doesn't make sense because if you followed the rule you set out, nobody could eat anything ever.

Not true. One can have a minor allergic reaction to peanuts the first time out, but that indicates that further contact with peanuts may produce a more severe reaction.

That's correct it's a moderately severe reaction

Well, according to some headteacher in a Portland school anyway:

Quote:
Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich is Racist, Says Portland School Official

Did you know that eating or even talking about a peanut butter and jelly sandwich could be considered racist?

That’s right.

Apparently, it’s because people in some cultures don’t eat sandwich bread. Verenice Gutierrez, principal of Harvey Scott K-8 School in Portland explained in and interview with the Portland Tribune:


I don't like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, but I like falafel and humous with salad in taboon.



Interesting someone from the UK found this news from a local paper in the states where I live. I wonder how you found this article.

A grilled cheese sandwich would be FAR more racist!


Atleast they do grow and exploit peanuts in Africa, and in Asia.

But just examine the menu of any Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Korean, or Japanese, restaurant.

Where do you see a single dish with cheese (either melted or otherwise)?

NOWHERE.

In none of the cuisines of east asia do you find cheese!

So eating cheese is racist against east asians!

Not so much racist as exclusive, Many East Asians have lactose intolerance and rely on soy protein instead of cow's milk.

Actually, George Washington Carver didn't invent peanut butter, though he may did discover three hundred uses for peanuts.

No sorry, what I meant was that if you forbid people to eat food for political correctness, you will eventually run of food that it's ok to eat - because that's human nature.

My very point.

The idea that either sandwich is 'racist' is absurd.
But the fact that somalians eat hummus tacos (or whatever they eat) and not PB sandwiches is because of culture, and has nothing to do with race. So saying PB sandwhiches are racist is doubly silly. But the lactose inoterence of east asians is related to genetics, and thus is kinda related to race. So if this school district were to make a stink about cheese or dairy being racist there would some kernal of truth buried in the insanity of their thinking.

Banning anything with peanuts has nothing to do with being PC. Being allergic to peanuts is very serious and it's not the same as any other food allergies. Being exposed to it is harmful, if someone has the oil on their hands and they touch the person who is allergic to it, it can be very harmful for them. Look it up.

I wonder why there are so many with peanut allergies now.PBJ was a staple when I was a kid,I never knew anyone with an allergy to it.I had a friend that was allergic to cat hair,but that's the only allergy I remember anyone having.The lunch room regularly served peanut butter cookies and that was the first thing you baked in home- ec,every body ate them.

Wait a minute, so because I am a Chinese who is a big fan of both peanut butter sandwiches and dairy, I'm racist against myself? Especially because apparently, I'm also lactose intolerant even though I didn't know it before people outside my nationality informed me... And my Haitian best friend the same way with the cheese and the peanut butter... Lmao fail facepalm lololoool

This is pretty funny, guys.

There was a classic story of a child in a school in Sydney Australia being bullied by students of a particular religious persuasion because his mother makes him "ham" sandwiches.
