Today, I came home from a rough day working two jobs to find a plate of cookies on my desk with a note from my roommates saying, "You deserve it!" I happily broke one in half to eat and discovered they contained coconut. I'm allergic to coconut, a fact that both of my roommates are aware of. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my roommate left a bomb looking package of cookies on the kitchen counter. My sweet tooth got the best of me and I made that split second decision of, "Oh, I'll just have one." Halfway through it, I noticed the fine print, "For dogs" on the package. FML
Today, there was a big cake at the office. I thought it was funny to pretend to push the cute girl in the office into it. She laughed, but then lost her balance and fell forward. Everyone saw. Turns out she’s allergic to coconut, even just the shavings on a cake, and had to go to the hospital. FML
Today, I found some cookies on my bed and got so excited that I kneed myself in my face. FML
Today, I had to go to the ER because of a terrible allergic reaction I had to the cookies my "friend" made for me. She assured me several times that there were no nuts in them. Turns out, she put nuts in them on purpose, to see whether or not I was really allergic. FML
Today, I found out that I'm not actually allergic to chocolate, when my mom freely admitted to me that she made it up when I was a child because she didn't want to share any cookies with me. FML
Today, I went to interview with potential new roommates at a cooperative living house. I decided to bake cookies for everyone, and while touring the house, I forgot about the cookies and set off a small oven fire. All this after professing how responsible I am. FML
Today, I discovered a drawer full of chocolates, cookies and baked goods in my house. When I asked my sister what the drawer was, she told me that my mom thought it would be a good idea to hide the fattening foods from me. My entire family had known about the food drawer, except me. FML
Today, I made my mom cookies for Mother's Day. My brother took all the cookies to work as a snack, because I didn't specifically tell him that the homemade "MOM" hearts weren't meant for him. FML
Today, I made a small batch of cookies and took them to work. Mostly everyone took one, but nobody said anything until I asked how they were. Someone asked what my recipe was, because it tasted like I'd forgot to add sugar. I bit into one. I had. The cookies tasted like muddy mush. FML
Today, I got a package containing a present from my grandma. It was a pack of cookies someone gave her for her birthday, and which no one in the family wanted to take home when she offered, because we all found the cookies disgusting. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

There's still a small chance they forgot...but if they didn't, that's just sad.

At least you realized it had coconut in it before you ate it.

It's really a matter of whether it was malicious or not, and I expect OP is in a better position than us to tell which it was. Some people don't seem to really understand that you can't mess about with allergies, so whilst it's a terrible thing to do, their biggest crime is stupidity rather than cruelty. All you can do there is try to make them understand and if they can't, write them off as a lost cause and never eat anything they cook. If they just plain forgot and wanted to do something nice for OP, then that's very sweet and they'll likely feel awful and be apologetic so there's no need to take it any further. If they were malicious though, just get out of there, OP. Do whatever you can to move out as soon as possible, you definitely don't want to surround yourself with people who think it's okay to hurt others for fun.

Coconut is one of the most hypoallergenic foods, I have literally never heard of anyone being allergic to it before.

Just because a coconut allergy is unheard of doesn't mean it's unlikely. My sister's best friend and I are both allergic to coconut

Maybe they weren't really for you.
