Bonus points for flagging peanuts which are rotation crop for cotton that's technically 'not a food' crop so it can have more lethal chemical applications. Next season the peanuts grow in the hyper toxic soil and instead of drawing nutrients they are steeped in toxins.

I didn't know that about peanuts. They used to say a similar thing about cottonseed oil. Peanuts have another problem, which is the toxic mold, aflatoxin. Which also is supposedly carcinogenic. I wonder if it is also hallucinogenic--I haven't eaten regular peanut butter for decades, but sometimes, but not always, after I eat Reese's peanut butter cups I tend to have nightmares.
For Gods sake!! Really?? I had no idea!! My boys eat PB like itтАЩs going out of style!! Does that happen with organic peanuts as well?? I am donating our unopened jars and bought Organic. I wonder now if I should limit it to once a week or so. Well, looks like I have some research to do. Thank you for the heads up.
Ugh. I thought they were protected due to shell. Yikes! It should be illegal! I have 4 teen boys eating me out of my house right now. I get тАЬnaturalтАЭ no GMO big jars of course but now won't be able to allow it. I'm filling them with toxins. It just makes me so angry!
About a decade ago activists got 1 million signatures at FDA to require GMO ingredients be labeled & put Prop37 on the ballot in California to require gmo labeling.
FDA deleted the million signatures from their site & Industry spent $35 million to defeat Prop37 so consumer group created Non-GMO labels. This is NOT the same as organic it does not mean no chemicals are used in growing only that the seeds are not genetically engineered.
Once consumers embraced the Non-GMO label big food started adding the label to products that do NOT have gmo crop equivalent to suggest to consumers it is like organic when it's not. There is NO Legal definition for "NATURAL" in food it's a marketing term not a disclosure.
The entire American system is as toxic as our foods and consumers health takes a back seat to profiteers. You need to be flippin Sherlock Holmes to find toxic ingredients. We are ruled by criminals and eat ^%$# is prevailing policy.
Yes Bill Gates wants the entire world swallowing their patent protected products from cradle to grave & push idiotic ideas under the guise of feeding the world. Irony is currently there's more nutrition in the average bug than Monsanto-Gates Big Ag packaged crap on store shelves.
Yeah, I know the difference between organic and GMO. I just didn't know peanuts were that toxic. I wrongly assumed the shell protected the peanut. I however did not know the rest Of the story. FDA has always been rotten! Thanks for sharing.

Almond Butter is a great sub for peanut better.
