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.
