ScienceDaily: Peanut Allergies Overstated, Study Finds
This story reports how some kids, who eat peanuts with no problem, can still show an allergic reaction with a skin test.
I thought I had heard somewhere, years ago, that the skin tests for allergens was always a pretty haphazard exercise, with many false positives. It's not something I know much about, but the results of this particular study do seem pretty surprising.
