Skippy Free

From ABC News:

...there is a race among researchers to find an allergy-free peanut, considered the holy grail of sorts in food science.

Researchers at North Carolina A&T State University this week say they've found a way to deactivate peanut allergens in the lab, but it still has to be tested on people.

"The farmer can go on and produce whatever they produce. … We remove the allergen through processing rather than breeding of the peanut itself," explained Mohammed Ahmedna, who works on the study.
