A member asked:

Ate chicken soup w carrots, celery, potato & rice. 5 min in, my mouth & tongue went numb. allergy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly,: was it homemade or commercially processed? Many commercially processed soups contain preservatives and flavoring/coloring agents which you may be sensitive to but not a true allergy. Do some dective work, read the labels carefully and try a good homemade organic recipe.
