Allergic to nuts? Don't eat.

It often occurrs to me how grateful I ought to be that I am not allergic to any food type. I looked on the back of a seemingly harmless, if moreish, tub of crab paste, and encountered this gibberish:

"Recipe: No nuts. Factory: No nuts. Ingredients: Cannot guarentee nut free."

I ask you. How on earth do you srvive if you have a serious nut allergy? As far as I can see, the only way the minced crab I was eating somehow contained a nut is if it ate one while scrabling around on the sea floor.

Another example of health and safety [and being afraid of getting sued] gone mad.
