Time to do some label reading. Line up the foods that make you sick, and find all the ingredients that they have in common. Then check that list off against the foods that don't make you sick. Whatever's left over is probably the culprit.

...It may not necessarily be preservatives giving you trouble. For example, people with peanut allergies will get reactions from all sorts of foods, because peanut oil is often used in preparation.

Then go to an allergist and get some tests to confirm what substances are giving you trouble. Then you have a choice: Either avoid foods that contain those substances, or see if you can get immunity therapy. That's where you get regular small doses of the allergens until your body gets used to them.
