Yeah, years ago I worked in a cinema as a teen. They introduced this spicy coated peanut warmer in the concession stand. It had a massive warning on the front that it may, MAY, contain nuts. Err. It's f

This is very true. My daughter loves nuts but is allergic to peanuts. She has always enjoyed carrot cake, which is almost always made with walnuts. Except for some cafe in NZ that decided to use peanuts instead. Fortunately my daughter’s peanut allergy isn’t that bad and she was just uncomfortable for a while (and I got to eat all of the carrot cake, not just half!)Skeptisk said:

Reminds me of the joke: Escalators are never "out of order". When they stop, they just become stairs.I'm happy to walk down a non working escalator, but don't like walking up as I'm usually wearing flip flops, they can be a bit trippy.
