Help your school implement a peanut free or peanut aware 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 required by law to be safe at the school, has prompted a response by 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 addition, recent studies have shown 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 1000 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.
