I am allergic to nuts... If I eat them, I die... Literally... You wouldn't believe what a pain in the ass this is...
Everyone acts like it is bothersome to check for nuts, or say, "oh this doesn't have nuts in it", and I say, "I bet it does" and it will end up having nuts...
It really drives me nuts (no pun intended... well who am I kidding, it was intended) because people actually get mad at me if I say I cannot eat something...
They will have cookies somewhere, I cannot eat them... Whoever made them will say, "I made them, they don't have nuts..." I will say, "Believe me, they do" They take offense and get mad...
If you are ever annoyed by someone's food allergy, here is a challenge. GO to the grocery store, and pick up almost anything, cake mix, cookie dough, any bagged candy (especially Brach's, the only kind store's carry) and look at the fine print... SOOOO many say, "may contain traces of nuts, peanuts, etc..." Even some types of flour... I hate it, but it is the cross I bear...
