Re: Bananas make my mouth burn
Happened to me at 32 years old. Be very careful, latex allergies are like peanut and trea nut allergies, they get bad FAST. I ate banana pudding one day and was immediately allergic when I had never been before. However, I thought I was exposed to tree nuts and didn't connect it was the banana. Less than a week later, I ate a banana and went into an anaphylactic reaction.
I am NOW highly allergic to latex and bananas. I can still eat avacados but they sting a bit. Since my allergies developed in connection with pregnancies, I'm kind of banking on the avocados staying a sensitivity and not an allergy--very bad, I know. It's just avocados were my favorite food after tree nuts and I'm too stubborn to give it up when it's not an allergy yet.
