I wonder if it's more related to extensive antibiotic use, both in people and the livestock we eat. I played in the dirt a lot, pretty sure I was at least partially breast fed, but have always had a ton of allergies (as well as asthma) since I was a kid.
I also used to get at least once-yearly (if not more often) sinus, throat, and ear infections, and also received repeated antibiotics for UTIs (that turned out to not actually be infections at all, but muscle spasms related to fibromyalgia). I got scarlet fever when as I was four, and got yearly strep throat until I was well out of college.
As an adult my allergies now include amoxicillin (and penicillin and keflex), which was given to me repeatedly in childhood.
