I am not sure about the scientific definition; but I have several food allergies. My body does not digest certain foods and I can get several different negative reactions to those foods (rashes, difficulty breathing, indigestion, etc.). Some people with severe allergies could die. Those people carry medicine with them at all times, in case they accidentally eat the food they are allergic to.

A Food allergy is something that a person has when they are allergis to certain types of food. For example, if you are allergic to peanuts, you have a food allergy. It's when you are allergic to a type of food.

it means there is certain kinds of food that you are allergic to.. most of the time u will swell up and could break out in a rash. its alot like if you are allergic to bees or know someone who is and how bad and fast they swell up after the sting from the bee.. it could itch a little or alot.. If you ever watched the movie HITCH with WILL SMITH in it and he is sampling food and he gets an allergic reaction to one of the foods he ate that is called food allergies..

It is when you have an allergic reaction to food. Some common food allergies are eggs, nuts, and shell fish.
I myself swell up and get hives if I eat blueberries.

If you eat that food, you might get a certain allergic reaction like you might brake out in hives or it could choke up your throat, some are very deadly while others can just make you throw up.
