		0%	If you do surveys, somewhere between 25% and 50% of people with asthma believe that some foods can trigger their asthma. But if you test BLINDFOLDED people with disguised food, so that even the people running the test don't know what's in the food until the end of the test (so-called double-blind testing), then only 2% will get asthma. So the prevalence of food-induced asthma is actually quite low. But it can be important, and there is no doubt that a few people will get sudden and very severe asthma with certain foods.
