What are you allergic to?

I never thought i had an allergy to anything untill a few years ago.. I'm allergic to kiwi fruit.. Mum put kiwi fruit in my desert tonight and now i got a rash all over my face.. and i didn't even eat the kiwi fruit..

So i was just wonderin, What are you guys allergic to?

Forums: The Bar,

nothing at all.... im a perfect child

same.

Sorry to hear about your kiwifruit allergy. It's such a horrible thing to have, especially if you like the food you're allergic to. If I eat a lot of peanuts I get itchy inflamed skin. I ended up going to hospital in Samoa last year when I had a reaction to something (I don't know what) and broke out in hives all over my body.

After that happened that happened I learned the difference between food sensitivities ("When I eat [food item] I feel bloated and yucky!") and food allergies ("When I eat [food item] I can't breathe and need to take a pill or I'll die!")

that made me laugh i don't know why.

Doesn't bother me.. I hate kiwi fruit..

yes kiwifruit is yuck. I cant eat it the last time i had one i started well regurgitating... I'm not allergic its just doesnt go down well with my tastebuds

Paracetimol. I can't have panadol when im sick or anything with paracetimol in it. I have to take IBBroufen when i need to take a pain killer. Sucks.

bacon & eggs make me puke, which sucks because I do like them

SAME!!! terrible shame when i comes to maccas thou.....

Oh gawd. don't mention McD's! A documentry on it was forced on to us in english today. I was horrified.

give me Burger King anyday

//bacon & eggs make me puke

Man that sucks Tama, can you eat them separately? I don’t know what I’d do without my bacon?

although not really an allergy everytime i use port-o-loos i gag, barfed once.

nope, its the same. its mainly the after taste I can't stand.

yeh the actual thing that put me of maccas is ....when i was 11 i found a fetus in my bacon and egg mcmuffin....oh god that was hard to relive!- and because i was a measly 11 year old i did nothing-oh i regret that!!

holy crap!!! what sort of foetus?!!!

youre not missing out on much with the whole eggs thing, if you think about it they are just chicken periods.

speaking of eggs, today in careers/health we were meant to be doing an assessment thing to get 3 credits but i couldnt be arsed doing it so i was looking up stuff on the internet and managed to get onto a site about battery hens. of course, i already knew some of the absolutely awful ways in which they are treated, but this site was so much more in depth than others. i was disgusted beyond words. i already buy free-range eggs every week and sneak them into the fridge (mum doesnt give a shit bout animals and cant see a problem with global warming-seriously) but now im thinking, crap, what else can i do? battery hen farmers deserve to be spit roasted alive.

//holy crap!!! what sort of foetus?!!!

A McFoetus with a side of fries, probably.

I'm intrigued that you came across a foetus at Maccas. That would imply that the egg had been fertilised (unlikely in a cage of girls), and that it had had a few days to develop (ie, was somewhere warm enough for it to grow -- like the chook had continued to sit on it). You're much more likely to find a partially grown foetus in free range eggs.

//(unlikely in a cage of girls),

Hey, everyone gets lonely, y'know?

//That would imply that the egg had been fertilised

Maybe it was immaculately conceived. Maybe it was destined to be the chicken Jesus! And you ate it! Good one Sam. >:-(

haha! what a crack up. well, i do'nt know how it could have been fertilised but it was fukin disgusting and well as you can see i have been effected greatly! grrr!.
as for the treatment of those hens its really tragic and no animal should go through that-and i can say freely that i am no animal lover, but they are born-so they derserve a life.

Cocaine, everytime I touch the stuff I break out in felonies.

ba-doomp-tss

dam it how do you spell that noise?!

well i usually write the cymbal sound as tch ba doom chh like so but it varies in what kind of mood i'm in. personal choice i think

rye and dustmites go me. i used to think i was allergyless. sucks not to be.

Yeah dustmites for me too.

and cats. Very badly.

ugh dust... and vicks vaporub

ohhhhh yummm vicks vaporub that stuff smells soo good

omg! ur SO lucky to be allergic to kiwi friut!! i hate the bloody stuff and i try and use that as an excuse! ever since i was 8 i hav'nt had it. but i'm actually allergic to soap-hahaha yes i can still wash but i have to use the liquid stuff or dove- its weird how some people are allergic to some things????

you poor poor darlings with thoses allergies. me, im allergic to a few kinds of medicines, which doesnt bother me in the slightest. oh, but dove is the only thing i can wash my face with. nivea/ponds/even clinique dont work, but dove is very good. i love kiwifruit.

i am sort of allergic to chlorine and dustmites
but apart from that i have not yet discovered any food allergies.
it would so suck to be allergic to chocolate like my sister... shame

ahaha laugh at her for me would you?

wouldn't you be so gutted! inside and out

i rub it in very nicely sometimes... she gets so pissed she hits me sometimes
its soooooooo funny

antibiotics put me in hospital. i'm also allergic to some makeup. i've put eyeshadow on and had my eyelids puff up and break into a rash!

My mum had that once. She looked very funny, I laughed at her alot
Ahehehe.. It still makes me laugh when i think about it... Heheheahaha

Velocity's list of allergens:

Raspberries
Perfumes
Most cleaning products and detergents
Most kinds of soaps, and even some toothpastes
Pretty much any kind of chemical, pesticide or preservative
Wheat gluten
Poison ivy
Morphine, and all other opiate-derivative painkillers
Plastics
Synthetic fabrics
Cats

Some of my allergies are milder than others; wearing synthetic fabrics makes me incredibly itchy, whereas cleaning products make my throat swell shut. Perfume gives me a sore throat, whereas morphine kills me. I have to buy additive-free, organic, non-processed, natural, chemical-free everything, which gets kind of expensive and is a colossal pain in the ass.

i have the same thing with the synthetic fabrics.
i only wear natural fibres otherwise its so horrible

Im allergic to everything!!! Im a Bubble Boy!!! its really annoying when i play the drums inside a bubble! im allergic to the air that you breathe and tap water and of course the biggie...wood.

i wonder if any nzm'ers are bubble boys/girls ??? . . . . . .

Whoa, nice synchronicity.

um . . . yeah thats kinda weirded me out?!?

I only found out back in august that im allergic to L/T exposure to ammonia fumes i was working one minute the next i had a sudden headrush and faintness - sad thing was my workplace did not provide adequate breathing apparatus for working in such conditions.

nah - just went all woosy and started freaking out.

bees and cheap colgone.
stingy bastards

penicillin

Me too!!Well.. Kinda.. It gives me a huge rash all over my face..
