I think peanuts can be eaten by the majority of the population and we should
let our own reaction to a food be our guide. I get along very well with
walnuts, macademias, pecans, and peanuts but I stick to the walnuts because
they don't cause me to overeat them.... There is a "stop" with walnuts but
not as good with the others. Macademias are second, pecans third and
peanuts are the worst. Must be the carb content although I haven't checked
the profile of them in quite some time. I used to eat peas, didn't
particularly like or dislike them, don't eat them now. Peanuts I can
over-eat...... Oliva

2% of the
population can die from eating peanuts? To me, that further supports
Ray's general principle that legumes aren't part of our original diet.
