Is celeriac high in salicylates?

Watch for

Celery is a declarable allergen in the EU and UK and celeriac is one of its most reactive forms. Reported reactions run from oral itching and swelling through to anaphylaxis, so this is an allergy question rather than a sensitivity one. / Cooking is not a reliable safeguard. Celery carries both heat labile and heat stable allergens, so cooked celeriac in a soup or a gratin has still caused reactions in people who are allergic. / Birch and mugwort pollen allergy is the usual route in. In the birch, mugwort and celery pattern, cross reactive proteins mean pollen sensitised people react to celeriac, and mugwort sensitisation is associated with the more severe systemic reactions. / Celery is one of the classic triggers for food dependent exercise induced anaphylaxis, where the food is tolerated at rest but provokes a reaction when eaten shortly before exercise. / Gentler than its own stalk on the gut. Celeriac grades B for FODMAPs and B for polyols, while celery stalk grades D and E, so if celery bloats you rather than sets off your immune system, the root is the easier part of the plant in reasonable portions.
