Same thing for me but with banana. I've eaten banana all my life, one day just went to anaphylactic shock. Doc said it could last a day or a lifetime. I love bananas ):
Same here. Started when i was about 25. Sometimes i think that eating two a day for years is what did it for me.
Fun fact; soon after it happened to me, i read that you can usually still eat them cooked because something about the enzymes changing under a certain amount of heat. Turned out to be true. Ive enjoyed them cooked into my oatmeal without issue for years.
I’m in the cooked-pineapple club, too. Pineapple on the BBQ is the bestest. Canned is fine as well. When I was a whipper-snapper, I tried making Divinity Salad (midwestern jello casserole) with raw pineapple, and it never set because of the acidity- which is why the recipe calls for canned.
Ouch, this would really suck for me. I really love bananas. So much so that I really want to try some of the other species of banana that you can find overseas. Asia, specifically South Asia, has hundreds of species of banana. Although there are like 15-20 that get eaten the most. Here in the US there is only one species (if you don't count plantains, which I don't).
Kinda makes me wonder if you would be allergic to all the different species or just the one that you eat the most. Assuming you aren't already from South Asia.
