Bananas Making my ears itch

Seriously, does anyone else understand this?

I used to eat bananas as a kid all the time, every time my mom would go to the store, she would get some new bananas. They never lasted long in our house, I would eat them up. But now, 20 years later, they are as good as they always were, and I cannot stand to eat them because every single time I do, they make my ears itch. I have never looked up this unusual disorder or whatever it may be. It is impossible to describe the inner ear itch and everyone thinks I am a lunatic. There is some psychological disorders in my family, but common, I’m not crazy. RIGHT? If anyone out there can relate. Pass it along.

While people may think these symptoms are from food allergies, they may actually be related to pollen allergies. This is because the proteins found in some fruits and vegetables are similar to those found in pollen. This can confuse the immune system and cause an allergic reaction.
