My worst immune (though not allergic) response is to wheat, rye, barley,
and oats. Though not fatal in the short-term, it easily could be in the
long-term (ingestion destroys my villi and increases risk for cancer).
Exactly. Different people suffer from different allergies.
However, if we ban any allergen which can affect some small part of the
population (say, aspartame) well we might as well ban every foodstuff
and have Government mandated no-allergen liquid food tubes with only the
regulation amount of food supplied, measured on exercise taken. It'd do
away with the obesity problem, too.
The nanny state has gone too far. Across the water in the UK we hear the
left wing whine about how the Government should do something about
obesity and mandate what foods we can eat and how much. Really.
