Unfortunately testing has a very high false positive rate so unless you have seen for sure reactions to each of these foods you probably have a lost of false positives. One study found that 86% of positive tests were false positives in children meaning that children diagnosed just by test results were not allergic to those foods 86% of the time. As you can see from the others who replied, the list you have is not a typical list that you would see from an allergist who is up to date on food allergies. Is there a reason you had all those foods tested? If you have been eating those things without any reaction then I'd keep eating them.
