What are tree nuts?

Tree nuts grow on trees and include almonds, walnuts, pecans, cashews, pistachios, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, and macadamia nuts. They are distinct from peanuts (legumes) and seeds.

Where are tree nuts found?

Nuts are found whole, chopped, or as ingredients in baked goods, cereals, sauces (like pesto), chocolates, and processed foods. Cross-contamination is common.

Common symptoms of tree nut allergy

Reactions can range from mild (hives, itching) to severe anaphylaxis. Allergy to one tree nut often means allergy to others.

This app is a god send. Clear, concise, and reasonable privacy policy. In app purchase is a cheap reasonable addon acting essentially as a way to thank the Dev. Best part is the app does not lock the scanned behind a subscription service like most comparable apps
