      A sneeze is a reaction to stuff in your nose, that your body thinks shouldn’t be there. So it ejects it.

      Some people sneeze when it’s sunny… it is not understood exactly why, but apparently this is genetic.

      So many reasons why we sneeze. A lot of the time it is because the inside of your nose is irritated and it wants to get something out. ACCHOOOO. It tries to get rid of whatever it in your nose. Some people sneeze when they eat chocolate. My nan does that!! Some people sneeze when they eat mins and others because of the sunlight. This is all to do with having a slight reaction to the intensity of the sense experienced.
