that there is more coverage of the peanut butter scare in Australia and Britain than there is here in the states?

Hazelnuts/filberts are used more over on the other side of the Atlantic... except for actual peanut butter, it seems like every product that I'd see peanuts in here tends to have hazelnuts there. (guess which of the two I'm allergic to ... stinks when your favorite cookie turns up "new and improved" because they added hazelnuts to up the protein/nutrition level... even more when you don't notice the change because they don't use "new and improved")

Ahh... I never new that about hazelnuts/filberts on t'other side of the pond. I also didn't know you were allergic!
