According to The American College of Allergy, Asthma, & Immunology:

"Coconut is not a botanical nut; it is classified as a fruit, even though the Food and Drug Administration recognizes coconut as a tree nut. While allergic reactions to coconut have been documented, most people who are allergic to tree nuts can safely eat coconut."

So if you see coconut called out on a food label — rest assured it’s not a tree nut, not considered a top food allergen, and is a safe ingredient to use when creating Without Options™️ recipes.
