In the USA alone, about 1.5 million people suffer from a severe peanut allergy.  The USA population is around 270 million.  Once illegal aliens are factored in, it becomes around 300 million.

How interesting you two are so opposite in the allergy department.
I got my allergies when I was around 35. I had minimal allergies before then.
I would like it if they left just like they came.

Out of all allergies it is the most common. More common are cat, dog, dust and animal allergies. I am allergic to vinegar. If a glass or bottle of it is exposed to my face more then 2-5 minutes I get pimples. Weird right?
