For me, it's dark chocolate, and extra strong mints. So weird!

Chewing gum instantly

Yes chewing gum, especially the menthol ones

Not food, but the very first sip of a Bailey's always makes me sneeze.

Not instantly but anything with dairy makes me snottery and sneezy the next day. Lovely Grin

Not a food but brushing my teeth often makes me sneeze, maybe it’s the mint toothpaste?

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 15/05/2020 21:00

Pepper?

pussycatinboots · 15/05/2020 21:01

Toothpaste and Fairy Liquid - obviously not at the same time... or eaten...

Aero chocolate mousses Grin

I was going to say chewing gum too, assuming I was the only person this affected! Nice to know it's not just me and apparently quite common!

Hilda40 · 15/05/2020 21:38

Since when was chewing gum a food?

anothernamechangeagain · 15/05/2020 21:39

Clementines / satsumas

TheNestedIf · 15/05/2020 21:45

Mustard and, worse, horseradish (not that that stops me eating them).

Campervan69 · 15/05/2020 21:47

Chocolate makes me sneeze. As does the sun although of course you can't eat it.

katie43210 · 15/05/2020 21:47

Not me but those extra strong mints make oh sneeze.

petermaysawthefuture · 15/05/2020 21:57

Any mints, but not toothpaste

OoohTheStatsDontLie · 15/05/2020 21:58

Mints and port!

BrazenBrat · 15/05/2020 22:02

Sausages give me the hiccups. Every time.

Muppetry76 · 15/05/2020 22:26

Macdonalds hamburgers always give me hiccups!

Victoria6386 · 15/05/2020 22:28

Almonds, cherries, apples and pears

DollyDoneMore · 15/05/2020 22:29

Mint.

Pear Drops

lokoho · 15/05/2020 22:30

Mints!

SirSidneyRuffDiamond · 15/05/2020 22:31

Mint for me too, instantaneously. Weirdly except for toothpaste.

Daphnise · 15/05/2020 22:32

I find people who start all this sneezing at food quite irritating, as no foods make me sneeze.

And at the moment who wants someone sneezing near them......
