Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!

Tomatoes a new intolerance?

Tomatoes.
Cherry tomatoes.
Plain or filled with cheese, cream cheese or goat. Topped with fresh chopped basel or chokes. Tomatoes served in cute blue Moroccan bowls. Cherries fixed with baby mozzarella on a ice white plate sticked on wooden sticks. To many varieties for even more occasions. What a bummer though that since a short time my allergy girl evokes problems by eating this shiny red fruit. All started a while ago with tiny rash in the mouth and later on, after several tastings she suffers while eating and has a swollen lip.
Allergic for tomatoes, facing unknown allergies?
What exactly is developing this sensitivity?
Is this just about food intolerance because modest reactions and not as such too important to notice here. But however annoying enough to make any mention of. Food, teens and reactions connecting the young body and nutrition is a worry.  However we will not make a drama out of this and just skip the red fruit from the diet and instead make the choice for cucumber and avocados. We will follow up closely.
I of course couldn't avoid thinking of my nephew and his food intolerance and serious allergies for night shade vegetables. His specific allergies were only discovered during his teen years. As allergies seem to leave the body when getting older and growing, who knows new allergies will develop and come out. Maze....
