Al, you might also wear gloves- I think the pulp is irritating- someone
a long time ago complained about this (I think)
I have a lot of allergies but I didn't find myself allergic to the
aroid seeds, but over the 24 hours after I cleaned them the whole
surface layer of skin peeled off on my fingers where I handled
them. So I guess it is an irritant, even if not an allergy in my case! LOL
Thought this was worthwhile adding as a warning.
Cheers.
