Yes that would be terrible. Unfortunately it is possible to allergic to anything. While I know that it's not a nice thought, it can happen.
Have a lovely rest of the evening.

Yes. There is a condition where you can not digest some types of starch. If you think you might have this go to a doctor soon.
better to be safe then sorry. FYI most people with this disorder know it very young, before the age of 2. Other thing you might want to look at is are the potatoes grown with chemicals or not.
It might not be the food but rather the stuff on it.

It's possible to be allergic to just about any food product. It wouldn;t suck because that person would have never tasted and baked potato, french fry, or chip and it really wouldn't affect them. It would suck to wake up tomorrow and suddenly be allergic, but it wouldn't suck to be so from birth.

it's possible. it's more likely to be allergic to uncooked potato (that's where the protein allergins are) -- but others have trouble digesting it.
Banana
Avocado
Chestnut
Hazel nut
Kiwi
Melons
Tomato
Carrot
Celery
Papaya
Potato
all can cross-react if you have a latex allergy (and vise-versa if you are allergic to any of these, you could become allergic to latex)

Unfortunately, this is true. I have developed an allergy to all nightshade plants which potatoes belong too. I loved them so much and I have had to give them up. Fortunately, my food allergy symptoms are not too severe so I might be able to eat them in moderation in the future. Looking forward to that. :)

Green potatoes are poisonous to pregnant women and young children, I bet they are not so good for anyone. Potatoes are part of the nightshades vegetables and can be irritating to those with arthiritis

It is in fact an allergy. My cousin can not have potatoes, or any other gluten.
