Do bananas irritate the inside of your mouth and lips?

Asked by upholstry (683points) April 14th, 2009

I enjoy bananas, but something inside of them irritates the inside of my mouth, lips and tongue, sometimes even causing cold sores. What’s the deal? I’ve never heard of a banana allergy and this only started a few years ago.
