I am allergic to dairy (not intolerant) and eggs. I cannot even have yogurt, goat's milk, rice milk, soy milk etc. I am allergic to them too. I can't eat pasta - I am allergic to Kraft dinner (powdered cheese.) I cannot eat processed foods. I cannot eat at restaurants or potlucks. I can't eat sausages, hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. Fruit and salads are not appealing when I am hungry as I get much hungrier eating them. I can't eat baked foods from stores as they have eggs and I am very allergic to eggs (throat and tongue swell, strong pain in stomach and intestines, pass out...) My largest trouble is getting started eating. I have a lot of difficulty finding breakfast, and if I don't eat breakfast I am thrown off all day. I was eating toast, but repetitive foods make me feel noxious - and grain foods more than most. If I am even a few minutes late for any meal, it is the same. Once I am hungry, I cannot eat. I am getting an eating disorder and don't know how to get out of it.

I am only allergic to the protein in eggs and dairy, and something in powdered cheese sauce in packaged pastas (it put me in the hospital at 7 and until I was 23 I was convinced I was allergic to pasta - which is why I still can't eat pasta.) The other foods are more of a texture/taste preference thing, though the preservatives leave me feeling sluggish and ill.

Talk to an immunologist or dietitian. I am a dietetics student and... wait I am reading your post in its entirety.
It seems like total horseshit. The chances of being allergic to one food in an adult is 1 in 50.
There is no scientific research that food sensitivities exist to anything but msg, sulfites, and dairy products.
Get tested an IgE allergy test from your doctor, and then explain your situation.

Have you tried vegatarian foods? I mean cooking them yourself. If you can't find many places that you can eat at it is best to make your own food and take it with you. Organic food is probably something you want to consider.

I think your doctor is more qualified to recommend diet options. Best follow professional advice.
