[quote=Anonymous]As someone with a corn allergy, I would urge you to look more closely at corn. I can’t eat anything packaged or processed in this country due to corn contamination. Bags are dusted with corn starch, straws are made out of corn, it’s just a nightmare. Even something like chicken from an unknown source gives me hives because chickens are fed corn. I have to source all of my grass fed meat and poultry and eggs and dairy from a small farmer I can trust in Pennsylvania and make sure he hasn’t used white vinegar because it’s made out of corn in this country. I can’t eat tomatoes because they’re ripened with a corn derived gas and have to wash other fruits and vegetables carefully. For soap I use Dr. Bronners but have to check in with them periodically to make sure they haven’t switched to a corn source. I started out with being allergic to just eating corn but over the years my allergy had progressed, I believe it may be because I didn’t take it seriously and kept indulging. There is a Facebook group and a website, Corn Allergy Girl, that is very helpful. But it’s truly the worst allergy because it makes you feel like you’re allergic to everything in this country. I am planning on moving to Europe in the future because I don’t have the same reactions there. [/quote]
