I have a fruit allergy but I love it! Any ideas on how to eat it?

Cherries are a no go. I probably wouldn't try a cherry if you gave me an idea because it makes my face swell up and my eyes swell shut. But fruits such as apples, strawberries, and pineapple just make my mouth feel really itchy. This feeling is ALWAYS extinguished by taking Benedryl. The only problem is that Benedryl makes me SUPER sleepy so I know I can't eat fruit if I have to drive afterward.

My question is - Do you know any way that I could eat fruit without swelling or itching without taking Benedryl?

    Try eating cooked fruits! My dad has an apple allergy but when he eats apple pie and cooked apples he's fine! Even try heating up pineapple in a pan and mix with cinnamon or brown sugar for a sweet treat :) hope this helps!
