They are fine. They are the same as filberts.

I picked up an updated food list somewhere (sadly, I didn't think to note where), and here is the "Nuts and Seeds" section for Phase 1:

NUTS AND SEEDS
(Limit to one serving per day as specified. Dry roasted recommended.)
Almonds - 15
Brazil Nuts - 4
Cashews - 15
Filberts - 25
Flax Seed - 3 TBS (1 oz)
Hazelnuts - 25
Macadamia - 8
Peanut Butter, Natural, and other nut butters - 2 TBS
Peanuts, 20 small (May use dry roasted or boiled)
Pecans - 15
Pine Nuts (Pignolia) - 1 ounce
Pistachios - 30
Pumpkin Seeds - 3 TBS (1 oz)
Sesame Seeds - 3 TBS (1 oz)
Soy Nuts - 1/4 cup
Sunflower Seeds - 3 TBS (1 oz)
Walnuts - 15

Hope this helps! Personally, I hate most nuts and seeds, but hazelnuts/filberts are one of the few I can stand in cooking. The only nuts and seeds I'll just sit down and eat are pistachios and pepitos (naked pumpkin seeds). I like peanut butter, and peanuts are okay, but I don't really like to just eat them. But I can eat pistachios and pepitos for hours if I let myself!
