RE: I've been poisoned by ... Mango?
Oh wow, that sucks!!! I have oral allergy syndrome, which means my body mistakes the proteins in various raw fruits & veg for pollen I am actually allergic to. Basically my mouth feels like I just had a bowl of Cap'n Crunch after I eat kiwi, zucchini, banana. Sometimes I don't get a reaction at all so it's always a fun game of "can I eat this right now?"
Oh wow that sounds really tough. Hate it when the body messes with us.
It's more annoying than anything. It's just uncomfortable is all. Certainly not a reaction like what you had! Wish I could switch allergies off somehow.
