I am too. Except that I don't have severe reactions to it. I just get extremely hyperactive, more than usual, so hyper that I can't sit down. The same with Blue #1.
I'm lactose intolerant.
I have either a corn allergy or corn intolerance. I just know if I eat too much corn products, or corn itself, I get very itchy and nauseous.
I'm allergic to peanuts. I get hives if I eat too much.
I'm allergic to Cipro. I get hives.
I haven't been offiacially dignosed w/ any of these and they are mild, but common sense tells me that I'm sensitive to these products if everytime I eat these things, I get a specific reaction. Also, allergies run in my family. I eat all of the above, I just make sure that I don't go overboard.
