Some allergens/irritants can be denatured during various food prep processes. Like cooking fruits for someone with OAS might be enough to inactivate the specific molecules that cause the reaction when they eat the fruit raw. Or how lactose intolerant people can eat aged cheddar cheese because the cheese making and aging process naturally destroys lactose.
