What's with the stupid mother fuckers posting comments like "it's all in their heads" and "peanut allergies don't exist". You people are fucking retarded, I can only wish you would experience anaphylactic shock, then we would see how fake you find it.

This is great news! I have had a peanut allergy since i was born and i hate some stupid commenters on this video. They think we want to be cured of this allergy to eat peanuts. Maybe we dont want to accidently eat something with traces of peanuts. I have almost died 5 times bcuz of this allergy. This is exciting news!

To everyone who's saying that people with peanut allergies should stay home, or it's all in their head, please stop. It's not.

I go to a school where nuts aren't aloud, but people bring them on purpose often. The most recent was this Monday and Tuesday, where I was told that they didn't care if I stopped breathing and died because they like nuts. You have no idea how scary it is to know that because one selfish person couldn't live with out nuts you might stop breathing and die at any moment.

@OoLaLaFrenchGirl They can develop at any age, also, when they first start they are almost unoticeable, when i first became allergic to cashews, eating them would only give me a sore mouth, now just being in the same room as one gives me anaphylaxis...take the doctor seriously! Allergies are very unpredictable and scary

I have allergies and my parents took me to several doctors but each doctor said.

"Your son has a lot of allergies."

wtf! how will that help me!?

I'm 19 and I have not been rid of this stupid allergy since I was born! I constantly read labels on packages I'm unfamiliar with and I have to always ask about peanut oil whenever I go to a new restaurant. Even ice cream is a risk since these people use the same scoops for everything. I never asked to have to live a life wondering if I'll die today from some careless food preparation. I've lived through enough incidents to know I hate the taste of peanuts though! All critics shut the fuck up.

Nice that they are doing something about this hysteria and all the false belief that parents have regarding their children having a "peanut allergy."

If people weren't stuck indoor in front of the computer or tv, but spent more time outdoors and exercising, this wouldn't have become so overblown in the first place.
