A member asked:
Why does my face get hives after eating a certain food but other times my face will be fine when eating the same food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No food allergy: You probably are not truly allergic to the food and it is just a coincidence. Perhaps the food in question is an innocent bystander and another food is the culprit or there is another reason that you have hives and that reason is not related to food whatsoever. We eat 4 - 6 times a day and hives may seem break out after a food by coincidence.
