So...yes...I'm allergic to jackfruit :/

I found out today because they told me to try it. I've never tried it in my life, and now my tongue still feels weird and my throat is a little sore from the swelling.

I didn't go to the doctor because I ate very little, but the reaction was overwhelming. Plus, it's only happened to me once in my entire life when I ate a shrimp cake my grandmother made for Christmas. The next morning, half my face was swollen. I DIDN'T EVEN EAT IT, I SPIT IT OUT BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP.

Also, I'm not someone with many allergies. I'm mostly allergic to dust and cats, but it's tolerable. THIS WASN'T. I was scared.

Luckily, it was mild.

Tell me I'm not the only one who ends up paying dearly for trying something new.
