Peas
Peas (legumes) can trigger IgE-mediated allergy, primarily in children, with symptoms like urticaria, oral itching, or anaphylaxis. Cross-reactivity with other legumes (e.g., lentils, soy) is possible but rare. More common in raw or undercooked forms; canned processing may reduce allergenicity.
