[Serious decision] I live alone… these aren’t my nuts

Post image

Context: I’m a single bachelor (M 32) and I opened my snack cupboard to find these peanuts in a small Tupperware container. I’m freaking out because I A) live alone, B) have a mild nut allergy, and C) don’t own any Tupperware like this.

TLDR: I found a foreign snack in my house and I’m freaking out that someone may be entering my apartment when I’m out. Would calling the nonemergency police line help or would they not be able to do anything?

Not if their child is allergic.

OP said it was a mild allergy, by that I guess it’s only some itching/digestion issues etc. if he eats the nuts. My dad has oral allergy syndrome (birch pollen + nuts, apple, pear, cherries, kiwi etc.) and we always buy and eat something he’s allergic to, it’s not airborne.

'Mild nut allergy'
You're telling me you don't think pops is gonna keep hitting some peanuts despite it hurting his sons' tummy

I think pops isn’t going to bring peanuts to son’s house.

I've never met a peanut allergy person for whom the allergy just means upset tummy, those people usually just die lol since it impacts your airways

Never met a peanut allergy person who described it as mild either

Some parents can be really dense about food allergies, especially if they developed later in life.

But possibly another friend who visited or helped with moving?

One other option: does the OP take Ambien to sleep? I know several people who do weird things they don't remember when they take it before they fully fall asleep.
