My in laws live on the south shore of MA. When we visit we always stopped at the fried clam shacks & get whole belly clams. I would gorge. Then one summer I got violently sick after eating some. Tried it 2 more times, same violent reaction. Now, sadly, they are just a delicious memory......

Sad to hear cuz thy was good in the 80’s
I’m not sure if this issue has to do with contaminants or poison in eaten food, or if something I’ve noticed is the case with you on anther level: but I was surprised that respiratory allergies can come on even late in life. Until about ten years ago, I was never allergic to the beautiful Spring-blooming trees - and I’ve lived in the same county all of my life.
During the past ten years, the allergies have escalated amazingly - this season, my nose is running like a faucet, with pollen counts at the top of the charts for weeks. I’ve been praying for rain.
It’s possible that it’s the same for food allergies, though I’ve never experienced that - you might develop food allergies later in life that you never had before.
