re: #502 turn

I disagree bolivar, I’m one of the 10% of Americans who suffer from peanut allergies. This is no joke, people can actually die from this. I’m not that bad fortunately, but I would get totally plugged up on a flight where people were eating peanuts and this would lead to a huge pressure headache on decompression. I can tell you of more and one trip to the emergency room after having eaten only very small quantities of peanuts too. I”m going to go look up that 10% stat, I think I read that is about what it is at one time.

According to what I just found in this study, it’s currently about 1.5 million people in the US with peanut allergies. With about 305 million people in the country, that’s roughly 0.5%, if my math is right.
