Hi guyzzz. Do you have allergies on foods? The one thing I hate about eating sea foods(especially prawns and crabs) is that I get allergies from it. I just wanna enjoy eating but the allergies keeps on coming. So whenever there's a party or in the restaurant where my family have to order sea foods I always skip from eating that's the sad part not enjoying what u like to eat.

grilled squid - my favorite dish
Fortunately, I don't have any allergies. My wife has an allergy though and it's also from seafoods. Her skin gets irritated when she eat lots of prawns.

I also have allergies but that won't prevent me from eating what I like. I usually take my allergy pills before i devour the seafood. It works. Why don't you try it?

Sorry to hear that Nat. I do have oral allergy syndrome. When I eat watermelon or apples I get itching and burning in my mouth. I hear when people are allergic to pollen like ragweed(I am one of them) when they eat certain foods, they have a cross reaction. That is what I had because those items have the same what do you call it, properties as the ragweed. I love watermelons but I can't eat them without having to be uncomfortable afterward. As far as apples, I can eat them cooked but not raw.

I am so sorry you cannot eat these seafoods! I had a lot of food allergies when I was a kid, but I do not have them anymore, luckily. I don't think I could live without eating seafood. haha
