A member asked:

If i haven't eaten foods in months like nuts or nut butter, could it cause an allergic reaction when eating it since its been out of diet for so long?

No: In young infants , early introduction of nuts into diet reduces the risk of developing allergy to nuts. In adults, you are no more likely to become allergic after withholding nuts in the diet
