Nearly all furry animals, grass, dust, smoke, my food allergies were never really that bad... but when I had an allergy skin test, the only 2 things I wasn't allergic to were cocoa and salad dressing stabilizer.

lots of stuff, but none of it is major, for example, i get stuffed up and congested around cats but its only mild at most.

The usualy stuff bugs me like dust, airborne things.

cats, dogs, dust mites, pollen

I still love the kitties and puppies, though. and I don't have muc of a problem except around spring.

I'm allergic to tons of stuff, but I took allergy shots for three years so the normal pollen, grass, mold, etc. doesn't get to me too much.
Only things that seem to cause immediate reactions now are long-haired cats and large amounts of dust.

I don't know. I've had a few allergic reactions over the years, but they've never been consistent. For example, when I was a kid, I got hives (it's always hives) from what my parents thought were fig newtons. I've eaten them since with no problems. Another time, my parents thought I had a reaction to a particular laundry detergent. Again, no problems since. In college I had some sort of reaction to something. My whole body was covered in hives.

All I really care about is the fact that MSG causes my migraines.
