Trachea

Explanation:

The trachea, commonly called the windpipe, is the main airway to the lungs. It divides into the right and left bronchi at the level of the fifth thoracic vertebra, channeling air to the right or left lung. The cartilage in the tracheal wall provides support and keeps the trachea from collapsing. The mucous membrane that lines the trachea is similar to that in the nasal cavity. Mucus traps airborne particles and microorganisms, and the cilia propel the mucus upward, where it is either swallowed or expelled.

V125BC [204]

Considering the child's age and symptoms, it appears that this is an allergic reaction. It can be inferred that among the options, the food most likely to trigger these symptoms is peanut butter.

Peanut butter, in addition to having added sugar, hydrogenated or semi-hydrogenated fats, sodium and other additives, has proteins that our bodies recognize as "foreign" causing our immune system to react.

Peanut allergy is usually discovered in the early years of life, due to its high consumption in childhood, and especially affects babies and children who have asthma, rhinitis and sinus problems.
