A member asked:
If a person has a peanut allergy to peanut butter and peanuts, can they still eat soya nuts?

Generally: There is typically not a lot of cross reactivity between the two; if you didn't have a life-threatening reaction to peanut, you can try soy nuts cautiously, but if you had a reaction that scared you, you should first be tested by an allergist before trying soy nuts.

Probably: However, both are legumes and have potential to be cross-reactive.
