Hi kkt56,
Online resources are great sources of information to prepare you to ask questions of your doctor with regard to your medical care, but should not be taken in the place of your doctor's advice. In order to find out if you are experiencing an allergic reaction to the foods you are referring to, you need to see your doctor and be tested for those allergens.
If you are experiencing an allergy to those foods, the itchy throat and lips could be an anaphylactic reaction. Anaphylaxis can cause that reaction, among others, the symptoms range from mild to severe but could cause your throat to swell and close.
Hopefully, what you are experiencing is a mild reaction and you are not looking at a serious allergy. Please stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!Vicki M
