Anyone here with a peanut or sunflower seed allergy?

my daughter is allergic to them and I just wanted to show her that there are other people that "live with it"...I tell her that the allergy is not what defines her. She is getting older (ten) and feels like she is "missing out" and/or feels "weird" cuz she is different.
We have noticed that many of the "safe" treats (like Hershey's and Lay's stackable chips) are now going with "may have sunflower oil" on there ingredient lists. She is feeling down and needs some encouragement.
Please, if you can give her some, I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance!

YES, I am severly allergic to all nuts and please first tell her that when they say it may have something, it usually doesnt, its just made on the same equiptment, second she is not missing out. Also try soy butter, , it tastes like peanut butter. Also, she can never be weird when shes allergic to something, and maybe she will grow out of it.
Best regards,
Antoniocat3
