This is just begging for a nut joke of some sort, but I’m tired.

You know, I’m less shocked by the presence of Fluff in the Mass. schools than I am by the presence of peanut butter. I didn’t know there were any schools left where it hadn’t been banned.
The sacred status of the Fluffernutter is something I learned about after moving here. A New Englandism, to be sure. Sadie, of course, has already had and loved one. I’m not so much on them but I’m trying to learn before they throw me out of the state over it. I can’t imagine they’d actually throw it out of the schools in a statewide, organized fashion.
Anyway, the last time I checked jelly was pretty much fruit-flavored sugar, so WTF is the problem here, really? Far as I can tell, there isn’t one.
