I love avocados but they - along with most other fruits/vegs in the latex related allergy camp - soooo do not like me 
I can probably still only count on one hand, how many times I have had avocado this past couple of years...so lately after having the occasional treat of half an avo at times, without as much reaction, I had forgotten I had such a bad experience back in summer...  Sooo after I ate most of an avo last night for tea & reacted...I did some more reading & figured it has to be the high sulphur level in the avo that gets to me as well??!! I also read though, that to prevent mites, over a third of growers spray their crops with sulphur dioxide  Maybe on odd occasions I have been lucky enough to have had avocado from one of the other growers...?! Hence my inconsistent reactions  Ah well; once more for the slow ones... It is now imbedded in my mind - Nooo avocadoes!!!! I can certainly think of an alternative to avocadoes??!! Clearer skin!!!!  |
