Help your school implement a peanut free school policy that provides benefits to the entire school community:
Many socially responsible schools have responded to requirements
that outline the need to protect allergic kids at school by implementing
complete peanut free and/or nut free policies. The financial
risk to the school relative to lawsuits, not to mention the risk
of children dying who are supposed to be safe at the school, has
prompted the peanut ban implementation at many schools. Schools
that do not yet have a peanut free and/or nut free policy hesitate
to implement these policies because they are afraid of change and
the fear of backlash from parents whose kids do not have these live
threatening allergies. A peanut free school policy addresses the
needs of allergic kids and WOWBUTTER addresses the nutrition and
taste needs of non-allergic kids.
We have successfully addressed all concerns from schools and parents
(both allergic and non-allergic) and it is now easier than ever for
your school to implement peanut free and/or nut free policies. WOWBUTTER and the School Lunch Procedure provide a viable working compromise between those that are allergic and those that are NOT allergic to create a safer, more united school environment while promoting healthy lunch choices at the same time.

More and more schools are making the decision to become
peanut free due to the high financial risk to the school relative to lawsuits,
not to mention the risk of children dying who are supposed to be safe at
school. In additon, recent studies have show that many peanut allergic
kids are subject to bullying which can have long term mental and physical
implications.There are many benefits to your school becoming peanut free and accepting and/or serving WOWBUTTER including:
- Reducing the risk of anaphylaxis at school of a peanut allergic child.
- Reduction of bullying of peanut allergic kids that are routinely subjected to unacceptable taunting and physical abuse.
- Reducing the possibility of a lawsuit to the school as a result of a child dying at school because of a peanut allergic reaction. By law kids are required to be protected while at school.
- Increasing the awareness of peanut allergies and anaphylaxis
at your school and voluntary compliance of school peanut free policies. It
takes residue from just 1/50th of one peanut for a child to come
in contact with to have an allergic response. A child with a
peanut allergy has little response time after contact or ingesting
the peanut protein before a reaction, often severe, occurs. Peanut
and nut allergies account for over 80% of all food allergies and
they are also the most severe with a reaction occuring with even
just a trace amount of contact or ingestion.
- This healthy meat alternative provides your child a nutritious
lunch that contains 7g of complete protein and 1200 mg Omega-3
essential fatty acids per 32g serving and is much safer and much
more appealing to kids than highly processed lunch meats.
- Creating a more united school environment where conflicts
between parents whose kids are allergic to peanuts and those with
kids that are not allergic are eliminated when the needs of both
the allergic and the non-allergic are met when using and sending
WOWBUTTER to school. This provides a much safer, more united school
environment for all kids.
- Isolation and segregation of peanut allergic kids is no
longer necessary to try and prevent cross contamination of peanuts
within the classroom. All kids can now be treated equally
without worries of teasing and bullying.
- The added health benefits of adding soy to your diet are
well documented and provide a good foundation towards an active
healthy lifestyle for your child.
