So there's a salt in a lot of canned diced tomatoes (not all) that's used as a preservative that some people can be sensitive to. It helps keep the tomatoes firm while canned. (I worked briefly in a tomato cannery). IIRC it's one of the sodium citrates, but I can't remember which right now.

    Really? I never knew that. I wonder if that’s what I’m actually allergic to
