Yes: Food allergy can be as mild as an itchy mouth or as severe as anaphylaxis which can result in death. For those with severe food allergy, it is important to always carry an auto-injector of Epinephrine like epi-pen or twinject. Eczema or atopic dermatitis can also be caused by food allergy. This type of allergy is not necessarily associated with an immediate type of reaction as above.
