This was added last year. I started a thread on it. Like most peanut threads, people went nuts and it was locked.

I took a week off from flying due to the US Memorial Day holiday week, and was surprised to discover new snacks on my cross country flight last night.
I personally prefer the almonds myself, as I've never really liked peanuts. As posted above, even though there is the word "nuts" in their name, peanuts are roasted beans, almonds are honest tree nuts.
What I am not seeing discussed in this thread are the horrific new pretzels. Some kind of olive oil/salt flavored catastrophe. Dry and tasteless. Did not go well with my Woodford at all. Hopefully the old pretzels will be back.

I've always had some strange love for the old pretzels.

Well, you probably don't have to worry about every other flight being nut free just because of the special service addition. I added it to a reservation over Christmas. Apparently, they only noticed it on 1 out of 4 segments. The other 3 segments had nuts o' plenty.

On top of which, we're talking about the snack BASKET - not the peanuts/pretzels/Biscoff they toss to the proletariat in the back... so I put forth they should have replaced the Honey Roasted Nuts with St Eriks Crisps. At $57 a bag isn't this more worthy of inclusion in our snack BASKET? (They are currently sold out, but DL flies to Sweden, so c'mon!)

why on earth would you say something like that? I have a six-year-old daughter who is highly allergic to peanuts. A careless flight attendant put her life at risk a few weeks ago by not appreciating the severity of her allergies Despite multiple conversations with me. This is the first time in four years I've had an issue like this in Delta. If I saw you doing what you said I would take issue with you and we'd probably have a confrontation on the plane.
Don't put other peoples life at risk. I don't risk your life, but I would put it at risk if you put my daughters life in jeopardy.
