Most individuals with food allergy are allergic to only one food; however, peanut allergy may indicate reaction to tree nuts as well. Many manufacturers who process peanut products, process other nut products as well.
For example if you have a peanut allergy, you'll need to watch out for foods that contain "hydrolyzed vegetable protein" or "ground nuts," which may contain peanuts. Learn to ask waiters in restaurants about the ingredients used to prepare food.
