I’m in that camp. My kids and I don’t have issues, but my wife does. We’ve had to de-train in Germany once and go to a hospital due to a reaction while on vacation. Last week in NYC, we bought food and were ensured that it didn’t have nuts. But we forgot to ask about sesame seeds/oil. No hospital this time, but she was unwell (vomiting) for the rest of the trip.

We are pretty vigilant. If her anaphylactic reactions were more severe (I.e. airway constricting) we would be much more strict. But this approval seems perfect for us, since it won’t change our routines, but means we’re not punished for accidents.
