    Bananas. I thought I was the only one in the world with this allergy. Developed that the same time I developed hayfever in my early 20s.

    Apples :( And especially now, in the summer, they look so juicy and delicious. That is the one I miss. It's actually a pollen allergy. I'm also allerigic to most raw fruits and veggies, which makes it a beast to lose weight. I can't snack on carrots or celery.

    Shellfish!!! It's a systimic reaction so I could lose a few pounds if I ate it, but I'd rather just not bother with the rash that follows.

    A recent "allergy" within the last year or so....
    Blueberries. Makes my stomach feel like there's a little gremlin rolling around.

    This allergy was realized after I ate about 2 cups of them in pancakes and on top of some yogurt..... Not a good day.

    I think I might be allergic to crab - 2 out of the last 3 times I ate it I was throwing up all night. Could just be that it was bad crab but I'm not quite ready to try it again yet lol!!

    So, it's not a true allergy, and it's not a FOOD, per se... but drinking alcohol makes me sneeze for about 5 minutes straight! Some types are worse than others (red wine is usually the worst, and it's my favorite!). I think it has something to do with sulfates as other aged foods can cause it too... certain cheeses, even coffee sometimes.

    ...not that I've ever let that stop me! :drinker:

    Mint and 90% of stuff in the mint family. I have to be very careful of spices. Then there's crab, shrimp, and crawfish, melon and strawberries. I can do melon and strawberries in controlled portions but crab and shrimp and crawfish which make me puff up like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man!

    After I got pregnant I could no longer eat almonds, cashews, or any type of seafood. I also can't take vitamins or anything with Omega-3 or fish oils added. Almonds were my favorite! :( The allergies have seemingly gotten worse the more time that passes.

    Wine!! It makes my nose run & I start to sneeze a lot because of the sulfites. But I have a solution: I keep a box of kleenex handy if I plan on having a glass (or two, or three)... ;) I do love my wine.

    Alcohol.........I can get away with one drink usually, but more than that I start puking. I've never been drunk because I get sick before I can ever get to that point. I doubt I'm missing anything :)

    i am also allergic to avocados--and i never meet ANYONE with the same allergy: crazy! i get intense stomach pain, nausea, gas, generally just feel like i am dying.

    also, allergic to so many foods that i lived on for years, and never realized how much they were hurting me until i elminated them:
    -all dairy
    -all artificial sweetners
    -excessive amounts of processed soy
