SAGUENAY, QUE. -- A 15-year-old girl with a peanut allergy has died after being kissed by her boyfriend, who had eaten peanut butter.
The girl died this week, a few days after being kissed.
The teenager, who lived in Saguenay, about 250 kilometres north of Quebec City, received a shot of adrenalin immediately after being kissed, but did not recover.

How about before we figured out how to save these unfortunate souls with food allergies, they died. Removing them from the gene pool. Now we save them and allow them to reproduce and make more poor little souls with potential food allergy. Or 2: There are more people now that know what a food allergy can do then before, hence an increase in reports.
I would have thought so too if we had not had a thread like this one the other day. One Freeper said her son (I believe it was) got hit by a peanut butter cookie in a food fight. His sensitivity to peanuts was such that he had to be hospitalized. That's frightening.
