They are very tasty. But they also give me instant diarrhea.

I used to think apricots were dried peaches and prunes were dried plums LOL

Congratulations! You might have a birch pollen food sensitivity!

Do any of these foods taste funny or make your mouth feel weird?

Tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, apples, plums, peaches, peanuts, (white/navy/kidney) beans, or celery?

Tomatoes and potatoes are members of the solanaceae family. Thanks.

Not sure about plums because I haven't eaten one since I was a kid and I don't remember. But all the others, no. What about kiwis? I'm slightly allergic to them, they make my mouth itch.

Bingo! Kiwi are on a similar list. Lookup “Oral Allergy Syndrome” for more. I came down with it this year :(

Do dates, oranges, melon, fig, or watermelon make your mouth feel funny?

I get guaranteed diarrhea from strawberries and apples. Blegjghjfk.

I don't know that I've ever eaten fig or dates, but none of the others give me issues or make my mouth feel funny. Is it normal for some to cause issues but not others, or does that mean it's another issue entirely?

Aw, damn. It sounds like, with the kiwi allergy, that you have some of the underlying conditions for other complications. How about avocado, banana, or mango? Grass? Those are other common triggers (thanks, Kook!)

I’ve had a handful of one-hour consults with my GP this year over allergies and sensitivities. Right now I’m on a six-month self-administered immunotherapy course to settle down my immune system (literally injecting syringes of mold and fungi into my skin). It turns out I always had a slightly unusual taste perception of some trigger foods, but never knew it was the sensitivity symptom until this year.

I trust that you know your body best, but I would be surprised if you have no other food sensitivities. What I learned from my GP is the allergies can be treated by conditioning the immune system. Those can go away. It’s the food sensitivities that may never go away and/or cannot be directly treated.

Godspeed, my brother in diarrhea
