Peanut Butter is back!!

I heard rumors that there was a brand of peanut butter out there that actually tests to make sure there is no aflatoxin in the peanuts.  I saw blog posts but wasn't sure where their information came from so I emailed the company and this was the response:

Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Arrowhead Mills® Creamy Organic Peanut Butter.
The peanuts are tested for aflatoxins to ensure they are safe prior to using in the manufacturing of our peanut butters.
Thank you for your continued support. If we can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-434-4246Monday through Friday from 9AM - 7PM Eastern Time.

Peanuts are lower in FODMAPs than the other nuts out there which is strange since they are a legume and almost all legumes are high in FODMAPs.  I'm glad to find a brand that cares about this as much as us health conscious people.  I've already taken away my son's bread and cheese, taking away his peanut butter at this point would be just plain mean.
