The employee ate flavored sunflower seeds that another employee offered EE. The employee has a food allergy, and eating the sunflowers caused EE to have a reaction which caused EE to become light headed and itchy. The employee didn't remember the ride to the hospital so we are reporting the loss of consciousness, since it happened while EE was at the mine site.
