Things that often astonish people about those with "tree nut" allergies include:
1. That peanuts are not nuts. They are in the legume (think peas and beans) family and grow in the ground.
2. Almonds are also not nuts. They are in fact the seed of a "drupe," which is a kind of fruit. Almonds are in fact related to plums and cherries.
The more you know!
