[quote=Anonymous]some people believe the genetic modification of some foods, particularly grains have made people more intolerent. FOr that reason I do try to by GMO free when I can. They do breed new grains to be pest resistant etc. I for one was pretty allergic to certain foods as a child that gave me rashes (more on the citrus and milk side). My Dad (60s) had an egg allergy as a kid so it did exist. Growing up in the 1980s we ate plenty of processed food like orange cheeseballs and kids were not overweight nor as allergic to crazy things. Not sure.... So I think some of it may be changes in our food supply and the rest is just more awareness. People are more hyperfocused on their kids and get them tested and read more. We didn't even have the internet when I was kid..... I avoid processed food by the big American companies as I do think the quality is poor these days with lots of fillers and who knows what else.
