No Kiwi For You
One of the health care professionals I'm working with just called, practically in tears, because she went for allergy testing and found out that she's allergic to kiwi!!! Her lips are swolen, they had to medicate her, and now she can barely function. All because of a kiwi. She loves kiwi. She is heartbroken.
The moral of the story is: never take your kiwi for granted. I know I love mine.
And golden kiwi... nothing like it. Tastes like Mountain Dew. A true gift of the gods.

I am allergic to the skin of Kiwi. Like if it touches anywhere on my skin while peeling, I get a rash. When any skin is accidentally left on when I eat it, I get an itchy rash around my mouth. But I am fine if I only touch and eat perfectly peeled Kiwis. Maybe your friend is the same way?
