Eat 'em, Get sick.: Food allergy symptoms are virtually the same regardless of causative agent. If you have almond allergy & eat an almond you will likely have almost immediate symptoms of tongue, mouth, & throat itching & tongue, lips & facial swelling. There may be vomiting a few minutes later & difficulty breathing. Breathing issues may be severe. Sometimes symptoms are delayed for 1 to 2 hours.

Can also get tested: Can do a simple blood work by your primary care doctor or a skin test by an allergist.

Get Allergy Test: Food allergies usually cause one or more of the following symptoms: hives, swelling, immediate crampy painful vomiting or diarrhea, throat or tongue swelling, difficulty breathing, or loss of blood pressure and unconsciousness known as anaphylaxis. If you have any of these symptoms, you need to see an allergy specialist and have a test to see if you are allergic.
