No idea but bumping it for you.

"fruit", "fruit extract", "Fruit Juice" usually - really annoying, but there you go.

Ask her mum for the things she avoids, if it's serious enough to need an epipen i'm sure she'll have a list planned!

She just says starawberries but i know that some things are called other things and that things can be related to another fruit so can cause problems.

Perhaps you should ask her mum to give you a list of things she definately cannot eat, more to safeguard yourself really.

She has said that it is just strawberries.
