What about dark chocolate? Or maybe try some stuff that's a little more expensive, like Lindt or Godiva. Perhaps the quality of the chocolate matters, and maybe the more expensive chocolates are higher quality and, perhaps, purer, with fewer allergy-causing ingredients.

Good luck with your allergist appointment. It would suck if you were allergic to chocolate."I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

*hugs* I hope it is only a specific combination of chocolate (say 70 percent not all chocolate) so you can eat like 65 or 80 percent chocolate.Engaged to the amazing Marmalady.

The skin test showed positive after less than 10 minutes for cocoa. This means no chocolate ever again. I'm gonna go cry in a corner now.
I also tested positive for potatoes (moderate), oranges (mild), green beens (mild), and latex (mild). That's in addition to my previously known allergens of tomato and eggplant.At the conclusion of an Irish wedding, the priest said "Everybody please hug the person who has made your life worth living.

I've heard of carob being used as a chocolate substitute - have you tried it?
Not surprised about the potatoes - they're in the same family as tomatoes and eggplant. Peppers are distant cousins - hope you don't start reacting to them.
A lot of allergies tend to get worse with repeated exposure, and I've heard that latex falls into that category. Be careful.
Also, when you go to the eye doctor, and they use the drops to dilate your pupils, let them know about your allergies to members of the nightshade family (tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant) - the drops are belladona, which is derived from another member of the family.Any fool can piss on the floor.

Also with latex allergies, watch out for bananas. Very often those two go together.Quoth wolfie View Post"If your day is filled with firefighting, you need to start taking the matches away from the toddlers…” - HMComment
