In some cases, those with certain food allergies can be adversely affected by the smell of those foods, the Daily News reported, citing a 2009 study in the journal Clinical and Molecular Allergy. The American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology also warns those with fish allergies should “stay out of areas where fish is being cooked, as proteins may be released into the air during cooking."
