hello there..
what I can say is this: in my (fairly restrictive) food list almonds were listed as "green", so no problem to eat them.. however, almonds contain tyrosine, which is a precursor to tyramine, so *technically* they could pose problems.
maybe you could "test yourself", eating nothing for an hour or two, and then eating a little amount of almonds, see what happens.. if nothing, then do the same thing the next day, until you reach a point where you have a mild reaction. and if you don't get any reaction at all, you know it wasn't them?
