Wait a minute... aren't you a disgusting fatty? When are they going to ban fat fucks like you from planes? The sooner the better, right fatty?

Yeah. He's the fat union loving guy who hails from the city of Modesto, from the Central Valley that no one cares about in our state. Typical trash based on the things he spews on this forum.

There is actually no evidence of anyone ever having significant symptoms from airborn peanut or nutree particles. There is 0 reason why these dust particles would pose any more danger than dust particles from shellfish or wheat to those who are allergic.

If you've ever experienced anaphylaxis you would never even think of such god damn rude moronic responses much less think they were humorous. Assholes.

I just wanted to bump this thread because I completely agree with this.

I almost died once while experiencing anaphylaxis. I'm still unsure what it was to, but I lost complete control of my body and woke up to paramedics above me on my front lawn. My lips were huge. I could only get 1 out of every 5-6 breaths to get a little air in. My hands and feet were swollen to at least 3x the normal size. I had hives and what looked like welts all over my body. I itched like you wouldn't believe. It was easily the worst experience of my life.

Just a week ago a former co-worker had a guy in front of her go into anaphylactic shock due to a food allergy while on a plane. This is serious. To anyone saying "Hurrr Hurrr this nevar happens fuckin weaklings", it does happen.

To everyone who trolled in this thread, fuck you. You have no idea what it's like and how serious this is.

Just because we don't know what it's like, it doesn't mean we automagically should care. Generally people have a higher likelihood of dying from various things than something like an allergy. Like what has been posted earlier in the thread, just notify the airline and that will be that. It would be stupid to "ban things" just because a few people are affected by it, even if they're seriously affected by it to the point of death because then it's just a slippery slope and soon we're banned from doing anything just because there is someone out there who can't do it or are affected by something.
