The only thing I can think of that would be likely to cause a reaction
like that would be an increased rate of some chemical's absorbtion.
Maybe the gentleman is allergic to something that is present in both
warm and cold apple products, but absorbed faster by the body when warm.
Fructose, perhaps? Maybe pectin, which probably goes through the
digestive tract faster when warm? 

Perhaps the gentleman was savaged, as an infant, by a rogue apple pie ; 
) ?

(Sorry about that! I couldn't resist: there's a line in one of the Black
Adder episodes about Lord Percy Percy having a horror of the ocean
because, as an infant, he was savaged by a turbot.)
