I Will Tell You A Truth About Peanuts In The Next 60 Seconds

Stop feeling all smug, yes pretty much everyone knows a peanut is not a nut.....its a pea that tastes like a nut!

That is it.

Except if it really isn't a kind of nut, I now need to know why is it that those people with a nut allergy have problems with peanuts?

After all, if it is really not a nut then surely it should have as much effect on anyone with a nut allergy as drinking a glass of water would - that is to say it should have no impact, none whatsoever.

It transpires that this problem is an entirely human-made one. There should be, and is, no reason that someone who is allergic to nuts should not be able to eat a peanut safely.

However because they are prepared and packed in the same factories that do use nuts there is cross-contamination, and the risk is just too severe to take a chance - therefore best to avoid all types of nuts, pea or otherwise!
