Strawberries—A Tasty Treat, But Not For Everyone

Strawberries—A Tasty Treat, But Not For Everyone

In the movie Hitch, Will Smith is eating something that causes an allergic reaction. When this happens, Will Smith’s face and ear begins to itch and swell. This is a very common thing when dealing with allergies, such as from a food.

Strawberries are supposed to be good for the body, and this is very true. This fruit definitely tastes good. Although, strawberries are delicious and nutritious, this tasty fruit can also induce an allergic reaction that is similar to the one with Will Smith in Hitch.

Having an allergic reaction like that is very real, and yes, it does happen. If there is an allergy to strawberries or any other food, the skin can begin to itch or become irritated with hives, bumps, swelling and more. In some instances, the person may not be able to breathe. When this happens, take something that is specifically for allergies, or if necessary go to a doctor for instant treatment.
