Peanut allergies no more?

Scientists are working a cure for peanut allergies. By using a process of fermentation they have been able to significantly reduce the allergens in peanuts... with refining they may be able to make peanuts safe for everyone. Then hopefully they'll get started on hazelnuts and almonds.

Added bonus: the article gets today's "Stating the obvious" award (narrowly beating out the pope) for this sentence: "Peanuts are one type of food allergens that can trigger allergic reaction in people with peanut allergy."
