I am genuinely, totally, anaphylaxis allergic to pineapples. I cannot even be in the general vicinity of a fresh cut pineapple. It's slightly unusual, but not at all unheard of.
I know that apples are part of the latex/silver-birch combo too.
It's important to differentiate between allergies and intolerances, too, something a lot of people don't bother with - allergies are an immune response, intolerances are usually gastro-intestinal in nature.
wow. didn't know there was a pineapple/apple allergy. it just seems at every preschool there is a few children allergic to something- so not sure about the lack of immunity in children which is quite possibly enviromental.
