I had a food allergy test and I am allergic to several foods including white potatoes. Does that mean I am allergic to all potatoes? Can I still eat red potatoes our Yukon gold?
Not necessarily. I’m allergic to peanuts, but no other kind of nut.
Ask your allergist or (depending on your allergy level – over a 3 out of 4, I wouldn’t risk it) try eating a tiny bit of the red potato. If your throat and mouth itch soon after, that’s a good sign that it’s all potatoes.
Vomiting is a sure sign!
