Weird Food Allergies
Well, we’ve all heard the story of Devi’s sudden discovery that she was allergic to sea snake- not really a big deal, as sea snake isn’t a staple in her diet. I also wrote several months back about my weird drug allergy, but that wasn’t so surprising either, as I’d never taken that drug before.
Yet, for some reason, while I was eating lunch, I broke out in a rash on my face, particularly around my mouth. I wasn’t eating anything strange, just a chicken wrap and some strawberry ice cream. I thought it might be the hot relish on my wrap, but I’m not sure. Mom thought I might be allergic to strawberries, which I deemed impossible, but just to prove her wrong I went and ate a whole bunch the next day. No reaction!
I thought the food might have been contaminated or something, which caused my reaction, but I haven’t heard of anyone else being affected, so who knows? Let’s just hope it doesn’t happen again!
