My girlfriend is severely allergic to nuts and shellfish. Either can potentially put her in the hospital. Not peanuts, those are fine because they're not really nuts. "Tree nuts" she says so as not to get in that debate.

The problem is you can read a menu description of a dish and no mention of nuts is made. Every so often she bites into something, her mouth starts to itch, and she throws it down saying "there's f**king nuts in this" and I have to evaulate the situation to see if we need to head to the emergency room.

Corn's is in everything. I can imagine how tough that is.

For eons, people have survived nuts (in all forms), as well as tons of other allergins. What is so different today that so many people have such a violent reaction? Sounds like Darwinism at work.
