Which would be doubly silly as peanuts aren't actually nuts.
- jhugo 2y ago… which is why the label makes sense. They may have been contaminated with nuts during production.
- bryanrasmussen 2y agoI think acting as if peanuts are actually nuts for purposes of communication is much more defensible than acting as if tomatoes are vegetables, in short you are dying on a hill that was paved over long ago.
- rjh29 2y agoI agree most people will conflate them, but someone who's allergic to peanuts but not tree nuts (or vice versa), i.e. the people the labels are intended for, are going to care about the difference.
