I took an allergy blood test which came back negative, but my allergist says that I could still be intolerant to certain things. Is there a test to find out, and if so, what is it like?

Yes.It is called a scratch test.

I know they have a test for lactose intolerance, but I don't think there is a test for anything else. I am very intolerant to poultry, honey, eggs, cherries, and beets. However, it does not show up on an allergy test. As far as I know, there is no test for it.

Yes, your Dr. should recommend you to see a specialist who will perform certain tests to see what you're allergic to/or have a reaction to. This is a painless test.
