Cooking fruit not recommended

As I am allergic to raw fruits I keep experimenting with cooking it, can honestly say don't cook melon it's horrible ! Obviously not meant to be cooked
Grapes are a surprising success though quite nice.

Never known anyone to be 'allergic' to all forms of fruit....what about tomatoes and capsicums and chillies ?

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

Anything with a stone, pip or seed Malcolm it's very annoying I used to love fruit

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

And in which way does this allergy manifest itself Julie ?

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

Anaphylactic shock, stop breathing, heart stops beating, pretty dramatic. Epipens and steroids and hospitalisation.

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

What about vegetables, and nuts are you OK with them ?

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

As I said anything with a seed pip or stone, so vegetables or fruits with them are pretty dangerous to me. Cooked thoroughly I can eat them but as I said in op melon not good

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

Wow that's very restricting Julie...must be a real problem.

Re: Cooking fruit not recommended

Not as bad as when I didn't know what I was allergic to, I was down to eating just bread and eggs at one time too scared to try anything else. NHS allergist was great she really helped me.

This, presumably is a relatively recent occurrence though Julie because if the reactions were as bad as you say you would have been dead before it was discovered what the problem was.
The usual symptoms of this disorder are mild, being more of itching and discomfort in the mouth.
