A member asked:
Can you be allergic to the smell of a certain food? the smell of fruit really makes me want to puke.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It is probably not really an allergy, but a reaction to an odor. It may be a memory or just a particular smell that "doesn't agree with you". The easiest treatment is to avoid the smells.
