Sugar Allergy: In the true sense of the word, allergy, there is no such thing. But, in many obese people who have the disease of addiction to sugar, the word allergy is commonly used to help remind those who suffer from this disease that they have a condition. Fellow sufferers of the addiction to sugar often work together to find a solution to their disease and meet together regularly as Overeater's Anonymous.

Probably not: This would be distinctly unusual.
