- Swelling of the lips, tongue, or throat
- Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain
- Nasal congestion, sneezing, or runny nose
- Wheezing or difficulty breathing
- In rare cases, anaphylaxis
Individuals with a tomato allergy might also react to other members of the nightshade family, including:
- Potatoes
- Peppers (bell peppers, chili peppers)
- Eggplants Additionally, people with latex allergy (latex-fruit syndrome) might experience cross-reactivity with tomatoes.
