If allergic to the pollen of olive trees are you allergic to olives?

good ?, the same would hold true for honey if one is allergic to bees, its all inthere, i'd say yes... if i'm wrong i'd rather error on the side of caution... you can take a skin test at the doctors office, it does not hurt, they simply draw circles on your arm and apply a very very small amount of different stuff, egg, milk, ect, and then see the reaction which can come immediately or upto an hour, they have medicine right there to stop the itchy spot... another is that they take a blood /urine sample and test that. get one or the other.. but get tested

If allergic to the pollen of olive trees are you allergic to olives?
I'm guessing no, Because that the olive is a completely different story from the pollen. Pollen is only used to produce the olive, so that's my statement. Then again, what if the pollen is inside? That would make you sneeze of have an allergic reaction. But that doesn't mean you are definently allergic to olives. That is from other ingredients that your body can't handle. Bye!
