Acai berry allergy

I am grateful to those who posted allergy information about acai berries on this site.  I am experiencing itching, raised blister-like rash and swelling on my face (especially around the eyes), rash in groin,and under my breasts.  It started with itchy fingers, but no rash.  I was given Brookline dark chocolate acai and blueberry candy bought at Costco.  It was delious, and I ate four packets over two days.  I had one unexplained diarrhea episode, but thought it was from new Chinese restaurant. Now I think it was from the acai.   I have known allergies to poison icy (severe), mangoes, and cashews (mild).  I will avoid acai going forward. I think I will let Costco know that they might want to post an allergy alert.

People can be allergic to any plant or animal food. Should Costco post an allergy alert for every food item it sells?
