QuickTake: S.O.P.--Stupid on Purpose
From John Carlton's Rant comes this tidbit:
Most airlines are still giving out peanuts during flights. Do you know what the number one food to cause lifethreatening allergic reactions is? Yep. Peanuts. But it’s just been S.O.P. for the airlines for so long, they can’t break out of it. I’m watching for someone to sue the guts out of them. I know at least two people who clog up dangerously just breathing peanut dust. This allergy stuff is not secret.
John's take? Standard Operating Procedure (S.O.P.) sometimes stands for Stupid on Purpose! Link

Do the airlines ever think about the alternatives to peanuts? Besides being an allergen, peanuts are also very salty--making passengers thirsty and craving a drink. Wouldn't it be more cost effective to have a snack less salty, thus saving money on soda, fancy water, etc.?
