peanut allergies are really only common in the west. weirdly, there doesn't seem to be much of a correlation between parts of the world that eat peanuts regularly and those that don't wrt childhood peanut allergies - peanuts are super common in sub-saharan Africa but the allergy is exceedingly rare. and in Sweden, where they eat peanuts at roughly the same rate as the US/UK, their peanut allergies tend to show up after the second year of life while in the US it tends to show up by 9 months. which isn't to say there isn't a chance of allergic reactions to the RTUs, but given that their typical consumer is in Africa/India it seems like much less of a concern.
