Christina Desforges (15), resident of Saguenay, Quebec, Canada, died in 2005 of what was reported to be extreme anaphylactic shock after kissing her boyfriend. Her boyfriend had previously consumed a peanut butter snack 9 hours earlier.

According to the coroner's statement in March 2006, Ms. Desforges did not die of anaphylactic shock caused by a kiss from her boyfriend after he ate a peanut butter snack. The coroner, Michel Miron, stated that the cause of death was an asthma-linked respiratory failure.

It was also found that Desforges had traces of marijuana in her blood. However, the relevance of this information is unclear.[1]

The coroner said the girl "had spent hours at a party with smokers when her breathing problems began."
