Can a food allergy develop as an adult. i have been eating sesame foods since i was a child and always had no issues. i'm confused! ?

Yes: You can develop a food allergy any time in your life even though it is more common in early childhood. If you have allergic symptoms to sesame seeds, you need to pay attention to peanut as well since they share some common allergens. Sesame seed oil however is tolerated by most but not all.
