A member asked:

Can i buy mixed nuts with a brazil nut allergy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Most other tree nuts will cross react with brazil nut and cause symptoms. However, even if they did not cross react, you would still likely be exposed to brazil nut protein by contamination of the other nuts due to contact with brazil nut.
