I have a "sensitivity" to peanuts. When I was 12 years old, I ate a bag of airplane peanuts and my lips just swelled up and I had a little bit of trouble breathing. What's weird was that I had had peanuts and peanut butter before, and the worst that happened was that my tongue felt funny or I'd have a minor rash around my mouth. I haven't had peanuts since then. Until recently, my dad had trouble believing that I have a "sensitivity" to peanuts and peanut butter because it's so unusual for Asians to have this problem.
