Poultry meat allergy is a rare food allergy in humans caused by consumption of poultry meat whereby the body triggers an immune reaction and becomes overloaded with immunoglobulin E antibodies.
It can co-occur with egg allergy but more often occurs without allergy to poultry eggs. One study found that not chicken, just turkey meat are the primary cause of allergic reactions, whilst goose, pheasant, and duck meat cause milder reaction or no symptoms.
