Pollen and related foods that can cause symptoms: An allergy to particular foods may follow. Oral symptoms are seen among 70% of birch sensitive patients and 20% of grass sensitive patients. Most often oral allergy syndrome begins with a pollen allergy such as birch, ragweed or grass.

Rarely patients develop throat swelling, hives or anaphylaxis.

Most symptoms are felt in the mouth with itching.

PMID: 16095141.Oral allergy syndrome (also known as Pollen Food Allergy Syndrome) can be seen in patients with pollen allergy who experience mouth and throat itching, typically when eating fresh fruit and vegetables such as apples, melons, celery and carrots, but also with peanuts and tree nuts such as hazelnut.
