Anyone, get this same thing happen to them after consuming evn small amounts of vinegar..? So I am an avid eater of vinergar and cucumbers or vinegar and lettuce, shortly afterward I get a stuffy nose and congested head. I associated this together a few months ago but was in denial of me having an allergy to vinegar, I noticed it happened every time after eating italian dressing. I soon narrowed it down to the vinegar. Wow what a deal. I have gone 30+ years without knowing I have this small allergy to vinegar, anyone else have the same thing, and what are your symptoms..?

It does the same thing to me, but not when I eat pickles
I've always and still wondered why
My daughter is allergic to Vinegar. We knew she couldnt eat salt and vinegar chips but she didnt know how bad it was til she had a meal at a friends and the meat had been soaking in vinegar all day as in a marinade. After just 2 mouthfuls she felt very ill. Had breathing problem, dizzyness and couldnt walk to bathroom on her own and spent next 2 hours vomiting.She now knows how serious it is and is getting a epipen. Any vinegar on skin causes major rash, hives, redness and burning and itching.
I have the exact same problem: it's cold, but I sweat on my forehead and scalp and neck. My hair is quite damp. I have to dry off after having a salad. And it takes a while for the heat to subside. Crazy. But I love salads with vinegar. I have no idea what causes the condition.
Exact same thing happens to me. As I’ve gotten older, it’s gotten much worse. I’ve had to stop eating a lot of things that include vinegar; ketchup, most salad dressings, pickles etc. I’ve become an avid label reader.
ME TOO. I've had horrible coughing fits after eating salsa, steak sauce, ketchup, and salad dressing. I don't have any other symptoms, but my throat closes (somewhat), I cough so hard that it hurts my whole body. Then there is the runny nose and eyes, but I'm not sure if it is from the coughing or it is a separate symptom! I have chronic migraines, and I am wondering if there is a connection to this allergy.....
I have the same problem, i think it is because glutamates are also present, in other words, you are sensitive to msg
I suffer from the same symptoms when I ingest any vinegar containing products, plus the inside of my ears feel like they have liquid in them.
I just had a similar experience in a restaurant tonight! Really scared me. I felt like I was breathing through a pinhole. Eventually went away but quite frightening. Have to be careful with balsamic vinegar perhaps. Did you ever find out why this happened to you?
This happens to me too. Whenever I eat a lot of salt and vinegar chips or pickles my tounge and lips swell up. It usually goes down within an hour or two though.
I have the same problem. l was little. Do many people don't believe me me. But i know my body and know my symptons.
I have experienced the ssme things you describe. As i got older, i would vomit the next morning after eating snacks in the evening high in monosodiun glutamate and salt. After numerous trips to emergency i found out i have chronic kidney disease for years
I sweat as well after eating pickles or anything with vinegar! Glad to know I'm not alone
I have exactly the same, also with lemon juice. Have bo clue as to why, not worried till now but it sure would be useful to know why
