    It could be a mild allergy.

    Yup!

    Celery is sometimes a cross reactive allergen with latex, so do you have a latex allergy?

    I do and I can not eat it raw, only cooked in soups. Shrug. No matter how good people say certain foods are for you, if they make you feel bad, they are NOT good for YOU.

    And if you are having minor intolerance type reactions, it is often best to avoid that trigger in future to reduce the possibility of worse results.

    Weird but yes I do have a latex allergy! :noway:

    Alrighty then, you may find the following site extremely helpful, especially if you have other allergies from mugwort or pollen.
