Due to severe nut allergies, the preschool has a nut-free policy. This means no PBJ's for Miss C. Which was fine by me because I hate peanut butter and gag everytime I make peanut butter jelly sandwiches. When Miss C found out that she would be bringing her lunch, her first lunch request was PBJs. So off to the store I went to buy a $100 jar of Sunbutter. Okay, I'm exaggerating a bit. But for a $5 jar of Sunbutter, Miss C better eat her lunch! Sunbutter is made from sunflower seeds, and it tastes a bit like peanut butter with a sunflower seed aftertaste. I'm not packing mine. I did not eat my previous lunch (chicken penne) at work, so I had that for that day. Plus, I hate peanut butter (did I mention that already?) or any kind of alternative nut/seed butter... Though I have yet to try Nutella... that one has chocolate, so I may like it. SBJ sandwich with carrot dots party mix, grapes, mozz. cheese SBJ Verdict: Mixed. -- Miss C ate up the sandwich...
