Food allergy is one of the common allergic diseases and the incidence and principal foods are different among countries. Therefore we reviewed clincal history in 3,320 children with atopic asthma and performed skin test with food allergens. L. Of the 3,320 children with asthma, 379 (11.4%) had clinical history of food allergy. These 379 patients showed a total of 554 allergic reactions to 58 foods (1.5 allergic reactions/patient). 2. The ten most common foods implicated in allergic reactions were egg (22.7%), pork(14.8%), peach(14.0%), mackerel(12.7%), chicken(11.1%), milk(10.0%), buckwheat(7.4%), crab(6.3%), wheat(4.7%) and tomato(4.7%) in order of frequency. 3. Although the common foods implicated in allergic reactions were similar amomg the various age groups, peach was the most common food in children over 10 years old. 4. The rate which positive skin test corresponded to the clincaI history was collectively very low (22.6%), but it was the highest in buckwheat (92.9%). In conclusion, the incidence of food allergy is 11.4% and the ten most common foods are as follows; egg, pork, peach, mackerel, chicken, milk, buckwheat, crab, wheat and tomato in order of frequency
