Try avocado (egg-plant) for instance.<BR/><BR/>It's the reactions in the mouth and throat that get the problem recognised - although you need to be careful not to provoke anaphylactic reactions or choke yourself.<BR/><BR/>Hives suggests that it is allergy of some kind. Use the simple on-line tool linked in the latest posting on this blog - even though it doesn't recognise salicylate.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!pfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00367930299962499319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33504617.post-31458014318401424672008-02-25T18:04:00.000+00:002008-02-25T18:04:00.000+00:00I stubbled onto this site after an exhasuting sear...I stubbled onto this site after an exhasuting search into why I have been covered by hives and plagued by vomitting... I have always had problems when it comes to taking aspirin, and have always loved and excessively eaten tomato products, specifically spahgetti and lasagna..<BR/>However out of the 3 times I have eaten tomato products last week, all 3 times I have developed hives and twice (after eating an almost excessive amount) have vomitted.<BR/>This is troubling as I have been eating and enjoying these foods my whole life, the only other time I have gtten hives (at 17, nearly 7 years ago) was when I had an allergic reation to the anti-biotic Amoxicillin... So the hives were an immediate indication of some sort of allergy, now I'm left wondering if since I spontaneously developed an allergy to Amoxicillin, maybe I also developed an allergy to tomato products as well...<BR/>Any help of info would be greatly appreciated as I have no clue into how serious this "allergy" or intolerance could become...<BR/> Thanks Amber, from: U.S.A.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693383499795949804noreply@blogger.com
