Re: seriously strange
Especially when the 'joke' is delivered with the deftness of whom can only be described as a pleb.
Good day to you Sir!

Re: seriously strange
yes, well, you know, my post says 'read the intro' not 'search for the book and bring up the details from the published in an attempt to prove your moral superiority'
obviously you read it wrong :/

Re: seriously strange
I don't know much about a lot of things, but isn't it funny how on peanut packets it gives you a warning saying "Contains Nuts"?

They must be trying to protect hypersensitive pedantics who know that the peanut is legume and not a true nut.

Re: seriously strange
seriously strange 9 Feb 2005 18:58 Because it triggers a legume allergy?
nice bit of neg rep there.
Ok, so why would people allergic to peanuts not be allergic to other legumes? Why is the nut allegy linked to a selective legume allergy?
Perhaps there's some particular nut oil also found in peanuts. That's what I'm asking about, not claiming that the peanut is a nut.

It's not an allergy to nuts per se, but to one or more chemical compounds that are present in nuts and peanuts. The exact compound(s) are still as yet unidentified. One theory is that nuts and peanuts have compounds which retard rotting (since they are designed to be gathered and stored by animals) and these compounds may be responsible for the allergic reaction.

Peanuts never fail to fool me into buying another drink.
