First of all, I don't consider myself allergic to anything. Fresh almonds are not a problem, but I've had a mild bad reaction to stale almonds.
That said, I bought a handful of Kind Fruit & Nut Delight power bars for snacks on a long cross-country. I chose them for the low salt and low glycimic specs. The night before I happened to grab one and chew off a bite. My throat immediately constricted and my inner ears started burning and itching with the most unpleasant almond reaction I've ever had.
The reaction would not have been disabling in flight but it would have certainly been a distraction. You might want to check out any new snack before you consume it as PIC on a flight.
