That's no good I love chocolate/peanut butter guess I'll have to stick away from those brands.

What's hard about this peanut butter crisis is that if you read most candy bar labels, there is essence of peanut in the ingredient. I believe this is because of the machines that the candy is made on may have another product with peanuts in past production.  I say, don't eat processed food all together. It's just healthier all the way around.
