Found this that states only 1-2% of people should have true food intollerances. http://www.aafa.org/display.cfm?id=9&sub=20&cont=286 Not sure if it can go into this article directly or a more general food woo thing. But basically, it appears that people just want to have one to feel different. ArmondikoVtheist 07:00, 17 February 2009 (EST)

That's just counting allergies, not other intolerances such as lactose intolerance or wheat/gluten intolerances, which I think are slightly more common. WēāŝēīōīďWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 07:07, 17 February 2009 (EST)
The difference is apparently whether the immune system is active or not. Either way, they're rare, and then again, rarely serious. But it appears that intollerances arae more based on location/ethnicity as you'd breed in certain tollerences to local foods, the most famous being that of alcohol intollerance of east asians. http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/conditions/foodintolerance1.shtml I will have to find the entry that accuses most people of just feining them because they just never grew out of childish fussy eating.
