Hi,
This is my first time on here! I think I may be allergic to peaches :confused:

I have eaten Peaches my whole life (they are my favourite fruit). We have recently moved from Victoria (Australia) to Western Australia.

Ever since we arrived here every time I eat a Peach my face gets really itchy :( & has started getting worse. Is this an allergy? I do get hayfever but apart from that have never had an other allergies.

Thanks
:)

It could be. Are you taking an antihistamine? And wash the fruit before eating as well. it oculd be from what's on the peach instead of the peach itself as well.
 
I always wash fruit before I eat it & I'm not on any antihistamine as my hayfever has been really good the last few weeks.

It must be the peaches :(
 
It's unlikely but not impossible that you have just suddenly become allergic to peaches having eaten them all your life, Even though you wash your fruit I suspect since you have moved it could be insectiside or even the fertiliser/soil etc that the peaches are grown in. Even though you wash the fruit outside these things are still absorbed into the fruit.
