Here we go....It's the beginning of the end of serving highly allergenic foods on flights. Not only are the passengers put at risk, but the costs the airline had to absorb costly and unnecessary. Just ban the nuts already. We can all be safe and just eat apples or something. Many choices besides foods that have become so dangerous! I hope this unfortunate event can push the airlines to finally take action and avoid this from ever happening ever again!!!
