Whenever I take out a mcdonald's big mac, or chicken burger, I always
without fail, feel as if my chest is congested, and end up producing
excess mucus, hence I have avoided big macs and fast food, but
recently I was in a hurry and only place to grab some food was at sub
way, I had a chicken sandwich with radishes, onions, and basically all
on the menu

A day later I felt the congestion in my chest, and excess mucus
production, which I have been coughing out, which lately has become
yellowish/green and thick.

I do have mild asthma, and I am wondering if there is anyone who might
have similar allergies to fast food, or is this a particular allergy
to radihses/onions?

See an allergist and he can help you pin down the cause.

Do you have this problem with those types of food from other sources?
Like what would happen if you ate chicken and onions you cooked yourself
rather than buying it at a fast food restaurant?

Sounds just like what happens to me when I eat fast food that has a bread
bun. I'm highly allergic to wheat. Allergy desensitization shots reduced
about 75% of my allergic reaction while avoiding wheat entirely stopped the
remaining 25% of reaction.  I eat rice instead of bread grains to avoid this
type allergy symptom.  Allergy testing and desensitization shots along with
a modified diet might help resolve your asthma symptoms also.    AW
