I don't know if I have any allergy to any food. I eat everything but there is this one time when a family friend came home from Singapore and she brought this kinda spicy sugar coated squid of some sort. And when I ate it I had a stiff neck the morning after then come afternoon I got an unbelievable elevated fever and when the evening comes I had this ugly rashes on my armpit, neck and inner thighs. I really don't know if that is allergy but that is the first time I have experienced that after eating something.

There is only one food for certain that I know I am allergic to and that's avocados. I found out once when I had some Mexican food with some guacamole and my skin began to break out in rashes. It's too bad, too, cause I thought it tasted really good, unfortunately I didn't want to deal with the rash and the stomach ache that came with eating it.

I'm allergic to bell peppers and all types of capsicum. It really is a pain because it's in so many foods. Sometimes just a few little bits for color. Luckily I can smell even the smallest amount.

I'm extremely allergic to psyllium husk, which is the main ingredient in most fiber supplements (i.e. Metamucil). This stuff makes me throw up- one time, on Thanksgiving day, I had a reaction so bad that I had to go to the hospital, and I didn't get to have Thanksgiving dinner. So I have to be careful of foods that claim to have a lot of fiber, because sometimes they contain this ingredient. The only other food that I'm sort of allergic to is grapefruit- and I'm not allergic to eating it, I actually have a skin allergy to it. If it gets on my skin, and I don't wash it off soon enough, I break out in hives in that area. Kind of weird.

My family is lucky we don't have any allergies to any food that we know of. When my son was little he seemed to not be able to tolerate strawberries but he has grown out of that. The only thing my kids are allergic to is penicillian and I am allergic to wool but no food allergies that are know.

I am blessed with NO allergies! Well, a little pollen will make me sneeze occasionally, but for the most part I can eat anything and go anywhere I please.

Thankfully I'm not allergic to anything. However, I do like cherries but they don't like me. :(

Hi cream! I am fortunate and blessed because I do not have allergies to any food. I can eat anything I want. I can taste all the dishes serve on the table. I am not allergic to eggs, eggplants, shrimps and crabs unlike my sister who easily gets some irritations when she eats those foods. that is why, she keeps herself from not eating those stuff.

There is only two things I'm allergic to, eggs and cayenne pepper. And I really miss having eggs, I only developed an allergy to them about 5 years ago. Prior to that I used to eat eggs all the time, I miss scrambled eggs and deviled eggs most.

i am only allergic to foods having high amounts of phosphorous like in that of crabs and lobsters. but still it doesn't stop me from having them because these are my favorites and will not leave it even for the world. lol i usually end up having serious, so i do make it sure to have my medicine as soon as i have these mouth watering dishes. lol
