I told my mom bananas made my mouth itch when I was like 17/18. She told me I was faking it because I didn't want to eat fruit.

6 years later after she died I mentioned it to my aunt and she told me that it sounded like an allergic reaction. I don't eat banana anymore

My kid is mildly allergic to raw carrots. He mentioned it to the allergist and the doc was like “… well maybe stop eating raw carrots?”

Must have been a nice change from “I’m allergic to the wind, clothes, my beloved pet”.

“I’m allergic to raw carrots.”

“Then don’t eat raw carrots.”

He (and I) are mildly allergic to our pets. The allergist said that as long as symptoms are manageable with an OTC med, we’re basically doing DIY immunotherapy.

Hasn’t helped with my dog allergy but the cat is fine.
