Could I have given him food poisoning at lunch? The only new thing he had was kiwi fruit - could that be it.

Is this the start of something or not! Am a bit concerned as he has had at least half a dozen stomach bugs this winter, the last only last week!

I have read that kiwi fruit can cause quite a strong allergic reaction, maybe it did not agree with him?

www.chw.edu.au/parents/factsheets/fruit_and_vegetable_allergy.htm has quite a lot of info on fruit and vegetable allergy, it has a section on kiwi fruit too.

Thanks for that. I think it must be what's wrong cos 2 hours later and he's right as rain. Very strange. No kiwi for him again!!

That sounds sensible. I have always been scared to try kiwi, maybe I won't until she is, say, 13! (she is 15 months!)
