Why does my mouth itch and hurt when I eat walnuts?

Asked by JustJessica (4054points) March 6th, 2011

I love walnuts but every time I eat them my mouth and lips itch like crazy… Is this an allergic reaction? my throat doesn’t close up or anything so I know it’s not fatal. Is their something I can do to stop it? It also happens when I eat bananas, cantaloupe, and avocados. These are all some of my favorite foods.
