Allergy v Intolerant: There are many different reactions to foods including true allergic reactions, food intolerance, and food sensitivity. If you were allergic, food ingestion would cause symptoms including hives, itching, swelling, breathing trouble, throat tightness, etc. Gas, cramps, GI discomfort, diarrhea with food ingestion usually related to intolerance. Try avoiding potatoes and see if symptoms resolve.
