OP,

My kid just had skin allergy testing done and she's allergic to some random metal that's sometimes an additive in skin creams, shampoos, etc.

The allergist sent us a list of products containing this substance. If you're concerned, I would ask if your allergist can do this for you. It was from a database. There might be hidden sources of sulfites in products you use.

I have it. Didn't think there was a skin test-- figured it out a few years ago by process of elimination and never really wanted to do a challenge.

I react badly to large quantities, but I don't worry about small quantities (e.g. in avocados).

I had some skin testing done and tested positive for a sulfite allergy. Anyone else? Curious if anyone has tried to cut sulfites out of their diet and seen health benefits?
