Just to be clear, that it's not uncommon for people who react to tree nuts to also react to pine nuts. The allergist who sees the kid in my OP says no pine nuts for that specific kid.
There are absolutely people who can eat some tree nuts and not others, or who can eat pine nuts and not most tree nuts, but if someone tells you they're avoiding all tree nuts (as opposed to naming a few specific nuts) I wouldn't assume they can eat pine nuts without asking.
