Assuming you meant that I don't eat anything unless it is raw, the answer is
yes.

The question would be: which ones of the following foods are close enough to
what we are adapted to: tomatos, mung beans, cooked meat.

Basically, every food can be allergenic, even watermelons. But it is also known
that, when the threshold for one allergy is reached, you become much more
sensitive to other allergies. That's why hay fever, or some food allergies
disappear when you stop eating dairy and wheat.

I wonder how many egg allergies there would be if people didn't consume wheat
and dairy, and if they ate their eggs raw [thus reducing the quantity of eggs
they consume]. Probably much less.
