KBlaix, tell your husband to just inform everyone that he has a "tree nuts" allergy. He might be able to have peanuts, but no nuts that grow on trees, sadly.
When we was little he was diagnosed with a peanut allergy. He eventually out grew that allergy. (He had a reaction on an allergy test. On another test, years later, he had no reaction.) He does try to avoid all nuts, but sometime accidentally comes in contact with one.
