- March 12, 2012, 09:04:02 PMpeanut sauce pizza makes my stomach lurch just thinking of it.
YUCK! I don't really care for peanuts to start with and thinking about a sauce like that on pizza sounds so unappealing!
I hope no one around here decides to start a new trend.
I did see something like thai pizza at calif pizza kitchen, that's when we left assuming it would not be a safe choice for my ds.

In one preschool year the class made a trip to a pizza parlor. We skipped it due to a peanut sauce pizza on the menu. Typically the school was phenomenal on FA so that time we sat out. Kindergarten (for me) would be too young for a lesson in food critique.
Peanut sauce pizza? ! this is the first time I've heard of this! Is it common?
Anywhere west of Colorado, it's common.
Anywhere on the Pacific coast, it's so common as to be something to check for before ordering at a pizzeria.
Doubly so at small / gourmet pizzerias.

- February 29, 2012, 10:13:30 PMThey have it at the chain California Pizza Kitchen. I have not seen it anywhere else, although I have seen pesto pizza here, which may have tree nuts. I figure the pizza places are extremely high risk for cross contamination. Same oven, same thing that they use to cut the whole pizza into slices. I doubt they even wash it between cutting one pizza and the next. There is no way we would ever eat at California Pizza Kitchen (although I would go there without dd). I`d probably walk out of a place if I saw any pesto pizza on the menu.

I'd say that thai chicken pizzas, which have a peanut-based sauce, are fairly common - though probably more so in certain areas of the country. I know that when I was working at summer camp, I had a PA counselor in training who had a previous reaction when he was served the wrong pizza at a restaurant - the culprit was a thai chicken pizza.

- February 28, 2012, 01:38:25 PMWell, with the schools having less and less money to do things with, field trips have been waning in our district. I haven't seen anything like that yet around here. I hope I don't.

- February 27, 2012, 08:05:58 PMAs part of a manners class in 6th grade (it was a six week class), the group always goes to Chik Fil A. I thought we could make it work. DS is a vegetarian, so he would have been fine with a salad. But the teacher just decided not to go on the trip. And that was fine, too.

- February 27, 2012, 05:14:29 PMThe only time our school had something like this was when Ryan was in 7th grade. They were going to a museum (or something like that), then to a restaurant for a 7-course meal. It was an all-day affair. I told Ryan we could make this work or...he could skip school and go to the movies to see Star Trek with me.
His choice. My kid always has near-perfect attendance so the attendance issue didn't matter. We both felt some things aren't worth the hassle of getting accommodations up/down/left/right.
I don't think restaurant trips are the norm for most schools, but we made the decision together. He was old enough to do it. We had a GREAT time at the movies BTW
. Much better than going to a restaurant which would have taken up the bulk of the day.

- February 27, 2012, 04:45:29 PMSort of yes. In third grade my DD had a field trip to local businesses. They were bussed up to our town center (a shopping center) where they visited local businesses. The businesses they visited included the coffee shop, the UPS store, a cupcake/cake store, a smoothie store, and the movie theater (they may also have gone to other businesses. There was no mention in the information sent home about the field trip that the kids would be given samples. They were given samples of a smoothie type drink at the coffee shop and samples of cupcakes at the cupcake shop. There may have been other samples but my memory is hazy. Thankfully, DH was there as a chaperone and he looked after DD and another child we knew who had food allergies. However, my DD and the other children with FAs did not have the same "learning" experience as their peers on the field trip. Again, there was no information about anything involving food sent home prior to the event.
