The other day I ate a plate of fries at a restaurant. The staff swears they use peanut oil to fry everything. I am strongly allergic to peanuts. Nothing happened.
Generally, peanut allergy (which is the most-fatal star o the nut allergy circuit) is cumulative, which means it gets worse every time. I draw two, possibly both spurious, conclusions from this:
a) it would behoove him to figure out which nut it is, in case he's increasing a cumulative nut allergy and
b) if it is peanut allergy, he's still at a pretty nonthreatening phase in it (i.e. I felt a little swollen and would barf upon peanut-eating for my whole childhood; it wasn't until I was 19 or so that my whole body started to swell up and turn red after the ingestion of "goobers".)
