In Peregrine Dining Hall, sunflower butter is available as an alternative to peanut butter. Peanut butter is served exclusively in individual pre-sealed packages. Peanuts and tree nuts are not used in cooking; however baked goods may contain nuts at times and will be clearly labeled. Asking questions is always welcomed and encouraged!
