Live With an Allergy to Peanuts - Avoid eating peanuts and all foods that contain peanuts. This includes peanut butter, chocolate bars with peanuts, and nut mixes that contain peanuts.
Read labels carefully. Peanuts are in a lot of products. Words like "hydrolyzed vegetable protein" or "ground nuts" may indicate peanut products.
Avoid marzipan, chili and egg rolls unless you know for a fact that they do not contain peanuts. Peanut butter is sometimes used to thicken chili and to seal egg rolls.
Be careful when eating Chinese and Thai cuisine. Many of these dishes feature peanuts or are cooked in peanut oil.
Avoid artificial or imitation nuts. They are usually made with peanuts.
Peanuts are one of the most common food allergens, and unfortunately for
sensitive people, more and more peanut products are finding their way into
foods once considered safe. The only way to treat a peanut allergy is to
avoid any food containing peanuts.
