Does hard/dry cheese also give him migraines (like parmesan)? There's been some tentative studies into how glutamate may be a aggravating factor in migraine sufferers (chocolate and caffeine as well but not due to glutamate).
My money is that if research continues then common migraine sufferers likely have some form of hyper-sensitized or easily excitable series of neuron receptors due to a genetic factor that are connected with migraine formation.
It would likely be just for glutamates since they are a core excitotoxin we as a species consume the most and which can propagate cell responses that might not be good for certain people, still though there's not enough research to really nail stuff down besides glutamates being a factor in cell death when overabundant.

I'd imagine it's the same principle. Glutamate, coffee compounds, are both excitotoxic, and I wouldn't be surprised if chocolate was too

Depends entirely on the context of migraine. I get headaches with glutamates, never have a problem if I avoid those foods.
