I should add here that oranges never actually make me ill. They just give me a mild skin rash. It's sifficiently minor that I'd probably be prepared to put up with it if I really liked the orangey little buggers.
Not liking them is a far more major factor in my life than allergy :)
However: things you don't like are much more tastable than things you do. For example, I don't like parsley. People will swear blind that you "can't taste the parsley" in something. They're wrong. And before someone says psychosomatic again, there has been extensive testing of this with people telling me things don't contain parsley when they do - and I can still taste it.
