who needed to placate hungry infants for a few minutes would give them a spoon with a litttle PB on it, depositing the PB into a young infant's mouth or giving an older baby the spoon to lick . I never saw any allergies among those kids, peanut or otherwise. Besides, it was fun to watch babies try to cope with the sticky PB, the faces were hilarious. Then they'd want more.
