I'm allergic to nightshades (the relevant one for this post: peppers). Yesterday, I got sushi at a previously trusted store, the ingredients list didn't have any peppers or anything on it, it was a normal tuna roll. I ate a piece and didn't notice anything (I can't taste spice

      I am so sorry to hear this happened!! I have had this type of thing happen so so many times!! I donā€™t have a nightshade allergy, but several other allergies that show up in half the stuff on the shelves! I wish I had better advice, but I tend to stay away from any non-specific labels! If it says ā€œnatural flavors,ā€ Iā€™ll assume the worst and just avoid it. Sometimes, Iā€™ll do some googling, go to the company website, etc., to see if they are more specific online and have sometimes been successful with that (especially health food brands!) I hope this helped at least a little!!!

        @GroceryEater hm, I'm allergic to latex as well as quite a few fruits, never really connected those (except for fig haha, that reaction was what told me to look into latex in the first place).
