What to know about shrimp
Shrimp carries two separate problems. It is one of the big shellfish allergens, and it is frequently treated with sulfites (sodium metabisulfite) on the boat or in processing to stop the black spotting called melanosis. That sulfite residue is a real trigger for sulfite-sensitive and asthmatic people. Shrimp also builds up moderate histamine as it ages, so freshness matters as much as the label.
Watch for
- Commonly preserved with sulfites to prevent black spot, and that residue can trigger wheezing, hives or flushing in sulfite-sensitive and asthmatic people
- A major shellfish allergen (IgE-mediated), which is a true allergy and separate from any sulfite or histamine reaction
- Moderate histamine that climbs as shrimp sits, so older or poorly chilled shrimp is riskier for histamine intolerance
- Moderate nickel, a minor issue for people with systemic nickel allergy
