Most people associate acne with foods that cause acne because after they eat a big cheesy greasy burger they have an outbreak of acne. What is truly going on here is that the body has to deal with all the junk we put in it and at times, it has hard time dealing and eliminating all the junk. When we eat foods that cause acne, or what we think causes acne we cause inflammation in the body, which causes acne. 

People often experience inflammation from foods because they may have a mild allergy to the food, which causes a reaction in our skin. When the skin reacts, it often gets dry and itchy. We scratch and open the skin to bacteria from other acne. The bacteria enter the scratch and poof a pimple appears.
