What's the deal with airline peanuts? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

You can never get the bag open

or there are only like 3 peanuts in the bag.

But no, I miss the honey roasted peanuts. Now days no one has peanuts any more because someone allergic to peanuts will die if they even smell them. If they are that allergic, then they deserve to die . They give you pretzels now. Pretzels are not peanuts. Peanuts have protein in them, pretzels do not.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

They should hand out beef jerky.. that would be kewl. Then everyone on the plane will know who the Vegiterians are, and we will all look at them weird.

Peanuts were kewl, what if some is allergic to salt?

She1t if your allergic to peanuts don't eat them!

I like pretzels too though, so I don't really care... It would be nice if they would at least give you the really fat pretzels in stead of the thin Rolls Gold crap.

If someone's allergic to salt then they're screwed considering the intimacy sodium and chlorine ions have with the transference of electrical impulses along axon membranes and across synaptic gaps.

There's a fine line between:

1) Not getting the bag open
2) Ripping it so hard that they spill everywhere and the person next to you gets a broken nose from your elbow flying off the bag

The peanut dust gets into the air systems. Overtime it can be a bad thing for allegeric people.

When I was young I don't remember all these peanut allergy warnings. Were people dropping like flies back then because their cookies had been made in the same building as something with peanuts?

Or has there been a huge increase in people with peanut allergies? If so why?

Maybe they shouldn't fly.

Then we can all have peanuts.

Alternatively bring your own.

They could give us Peanut M&Ms... then those who like chocolate could suck the chocolate of the M&M and let those of us who like peanuts eat the peanut... and no dust!

No, it is likely because one whiny ninny had to make a stink and a lawsuit.

But you are quite correct: The US Aviation industry flew for 6+ decades offering peanuts and NOBODY *****ED ABOUT IT. Guess people were made of sterner stuff than they are today.
