Q: can anyone tell me if they get a migraine from eating white chocolate.?
Mark,
Food triggers vary from person to person.
What triggers you, may not trigger someone else with migraines. The best way to find out if a food is a trigger, is keep a headache diary with details of what foods you ate when you had a migraine attack, or we have a workbook available also with how to help identify your food triggers.
Good luck
Well I don't know if I get migraines from eating white chocolate, but I do know that my mom got a migraine the first time she at it. And she didn't eat anything that gives her headaches that day.
Dark chocolate can trigger mine. I cannot eat Oreos, chocolate chip cookies, or anything that has dark chocolate in it. I don't care for white chocolate, but I'm sure it's possible.

I get them from eating white chocolate which is not even real chocolate as it's made from cocoa butter which I think is what triggers mine when I eat it.
Funny thing is that regular chocolate and dark chocolate are suppose to cause them but I guess it depends on the person.
I know caffiene and stress can cause them.
