HeartyMeatballs, you are right of course. However, one shouldn't make light of the situation as some have here. Both my son and grandson suffer from peanut allergies. I know at first hand how so very careful we and they have to be. My son has twice been caught out. Once on a flight (hidden ingredient) and more recently in China when a frying pan used for frying eggs still had peanut oil residue from previous use! Although consumption can potentially kill them, their allergy is not severe enough that they can't be close to peanuts. I do however sympathise with those who are not so lucky.
