Peanuts, like coconuts, are not nuts. A person with nut allergy is not necessarily allergic to peanuts (and vice versa). They are 2 separate allergies.
Almonds are a stone fruit, too. It’s just that the part we eat is inside the pit. Ever notice how almonds still in the shell kinda look like a peach pit?
Peaches and plums used to be cherry sized, too (and cherries are stone fruits as well, but selective breeding got the fruit-to-pit ratio better for peaches/plums/apricots/nectarines).
So some recipes call for processing cherry pits, and the flavor is pretty close to almond extract. Because almond extract is just bitter almonds processed in a similar way.
Yup, my dad is allergic to nuts (hazelnuts, brazil nuts, and walnuts), but has no issues with peanuts. I have a cousin who’s allergic to peanuts, and IIRC he can eat nuts just fine.
TIL peanuts don’t grow from a tree lol

Coconut is a stone fruit apparently and peanuts are legumes.
And here my dumb ass was thinking legume was a fancy word for nut
I don’t remember the last time I legumed
Other examples or legumes are beans and peas
Legume deez nuts.
TIL Coconuts = rocks.
They’ll rock your world if you fall asleep under the tree.
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was do a thing called coconut rock
