Can people with nut allergies eat Doughnuts?

Question

Sorry about this question, but I can not get over the majority of the answers to the question 'Why do some packets of peanuts have the warning May contain nuts on them.'
I believe we all have some false believes.

I am only asking about doughnuts not peanuts, please only answer about doughnuts.
I will explain why I'm asking when I select the best answer, you will then be in a position to understand.

There need be no nut traces in doughnuts.
Here is a reciepe without nuts in it.

Answer 1

Certainly as long as they don't have the nut sprinkles......

Answer 2

I don`t see where you`re going with this coz all the answers to the nut question seem reasonable to me. What exactly is it you want to know ? If you are allergic to nuts you can only eat a doughnut if it doesn`t contain nuts - simple as. I think people who have nut allergies have more brains than people give them credit for. They have an allergy for god`s sake - they are careful what they eat !

Answer 3

No. Most doughnuts either are fried in a nut oil or their toppings contain nut traces. Also they can be placed in a fryer that has had fried food with nuts or nut traces.

Answer 4

Maybe they're allergic to other nuts besides peanuts. Besides, it's FDA regulation to print that on every package which have a possibility of an allergic reaction.

Answer 5

I guess it's some FDA law to print that on EVERY package containing materials with common allergens on it (nuts, milk, wheat, yeast, egg, etc).

Answer 6

Answer 7

Answer 8
