My sister had that same pic!!
In fact...she had enough to cover the entire ceiling of her room!!
Did you save it??? Might be worth a few bucks, on Ebay :-)
Fun memories. (Sorry you didn’t get the gig, tho.)
From the Wikipedia:
Peanut allergies are uncommon in children of undeveloped countries[17] where peanut products have been used to relieve malnutrition.[18] The hygiene hypothesis proposes that the relatively low incidence of childhood peanut allergies in undeveloped countries is a result of exposure to diverse food sources early in life, increasing immune capability, whereas food selection by children in developed countries is more limited, reducing immune capability.[17][19] A possibility of cross-reaction to soy was dismissed by an analysis finding no linkage to consumption of soy protein, and indicated that appearance of any linkage is likely due to preference to using soy milk among families with known milk allergies.[20]
I dated a girl in high skrool ‘78 or ‘79(once) who was very allergic to peanuts. I love them and ate peanut butter almost daily.
A month or so later, she walked into a BBQ joint and asked if their sauce had peanut butter in it and explained her situation. She died of anaphylactic shock right there in the booth.
“She died of anaphylactic shock right there in the booth.”

Good lord,how awful.

It’s probably a sensible policy for a company that operates for hours in the air distributing constantly recirculated air. Likely insurance company “suggestions” had no bearing on this decision.
I was promoted to Sacramento with a guy I worked with in soCal. Our old boss a prison superintendent came to sacramento and bunch os went to lunch.
My boss had said and he fell on the floor red faced. His current assistant gave him ,mouth to mouth and save this lie and he went away in an ambulance.
Peanut allergy. Next day he was ok.
Me and my crazy friend called the institution and asked the cook to send a case of peanuts to the superintendent’s office and he said are you trying to get me fired. We had peanuts for the names on movie night paid for from the canteen fund. All the cooks knew about the allergy, but no one in sacramento.
Air is not “constantly recirculated”. Thats a wide spread myth.
I just flew United. They gave out pretzels.
I always take my own snacks when I fly. They go right through the TSA screeners with no problem.
Yep I remembered wrong.
BTW -I took up bee keeping 3 years ago. Have been stung over 25 times and everything seems ok. I do have a sting kit for visitors and it has the childs liquid Benadryl, Unkers and Gold Bond with Lidocain for when it starts to really itching. The ER is only 3 blocks away and all the new folks that want to play with them has to have a buddy (usually me).
I tried getting an epinefrin set up with the vial and injection needle when I started out. The laws just changed on the epi-pen craziness and the only place you can find that kit now is on crash carts for heart attacks. Every other consumer use will be via the auto-pen and Im just not going to pay that kind of money every 9 months it expires as a preventative for someone else that thinks they are allergic to MY honeybees when they just got stung 6 or 8 times by a yellow-jacket.
People who have bee allergies should either not visit you or make sure they are prepared in the event they do get stung.
They need to be the one taking responsibility for it, not you.
FWIW, another form of Benadryl is often labeled as nighttime sleep aid.
It’s the EXACT same ingredient at 25 mg doesage and it’s cheaper and doesn’t have the pink color or nasty taste that Benadryl has. Which works for those of us who are sensitive to colors and fragrances/flavorings.
