Oh for you anything! You know that I have always been a martyr to your charms!!
I do feel however that there are more than one way to read your post. Do nuts get sticky when they get hot - is this a BA speciality. I like mine oven hot with a sprinkling of cocktail salt.

Anyway, from the British view, 'gotten' is an American word.
So it's definitely not allowed
… and what golfmad said as well

Plenty of nuts on my F flight last week (and the F cabin was full).
However, I never cease to wonder at the trivialities people can get worked up about. More or less nuts on an F flight. Not quite in the same class of problems as world poverty and sickness IMHO.

The word features five times, yes five times, in Shakespeare's plays, notably the Groom in Richard II ("with much ado at length have gotten leave/to look about my sometimes royal master's face", the roan Barbary bit), plus in the Merry Wives of Windsor, in the Nym and Falstaff set of one liners: "He was gotten in drink: is not the humour conceited?". And as for the King James Bible...
So very suitable for this forum, and predates modern America by a very long margin.

Aluminum is another … or perhaps not?
Anyway, getting back on topic, does the bowl have a warning label saying it may contain nuts?
