Just pollen and emotions.
I had a friend who became allergic to a bunch of different fruit including peaches when she was in her early 20s. I always felt it was so sad to know what a peach tastes like but never be able to have one again. Worse than being allergic all your life.

That peach story is like a sci fiction story.
A week ago the youngest of my brood (he cannot be a Prince; must be a Duke or Earl) had a birthday party at a restaurant. One kid party goer shows up with his mum, she says Buddy here is allergic to peanuts. Here is his epipen". Buddy brightly added "I might die!
Then I turned to my Princess asnd whispered "was the cake made with any nuts?!?!". And she said "I don't think so"

I actually love the mom's approach of not warning ahead of time or trying to make sure no peanuts were present. Just a
"he might die, fyi, be back at 5:00."

You are probably too young to remember the days when on airplane flights they would hand out bags of peanuts, which we would all open up, in a closed pressurized not huge cabin, and no one would die, nobody

I remember airplane peanuts. I have no idea why kids today are so fragile!!! I didn't know anybody with a peanut allergy.
The genetically inferior weaklings should stay home and and let the rest of us enjoy peanuts.
I mean, even if they survive the flight they will probably be killed by pollen or cat dander when they arrive at their destination. -

Or they could have a limbed trapped in the baggage carousel and pulled to their deaths in the bowels of the airport! anything could happen!!

Woe betide the bleary eyed parental Prince who in a rush might pack granola bars with peanuts in his kids' lunch one morning (or five morningsno matter.) . That Prince of Amber may receive a stern warning from the school.
