Person Contaminates Honey With Peanuts, Chaos Ensues After Allergic Roommate Decides To Eat It

Living with roommates pretty much always means some sort of compromise over chores and groceries, but most folks would agree that one isn’t entitled to just start taking someone else’s food without asking. A netizen decided to ask the internet for advice after accidentally sparking some roommate drama over a jar of honey.

They live with a man who has a peanut allergy and the netizen didn’t warn him that they used a knife that had touched peanut butter with their honey, despite the honey jar not belonging to the allergic roommate. The internet’s opinion was divided, with commenters taking both sides.

    I really like the OP's writing style. Also now I'm craving both honey and peanut butter (yay for not being allergic to peanuts - that's one less thing to worry about and peanuts are tasty).
