Abstract
An anaphylactic reaction following ingestion of banana occurred in a 32‐year‐old female cook. The sensitization to banana occurred simultaneously with the development of occupational asthma caused by grain flour. The patient was sensitized to a wide range of airborne and ingestible proteins but not to rubber latex.Keywords
