KEN SWARNER: BEAT IT WHEAT >>>
It’s all the rage to have a food allergy.
Maybe not, but if it were a fad, allergies are big right now. Restaurant servers, flight attendants, even your mom know all about the ingredients in their foods, and they don’t blink an eye anymore when the subject comes up from the public. They stand ready with alternatives, warnings and a little sympathy â€" arranging alternative dishes and substitutions.
Top bad boys: Eggs, soy, milk, corn, nuts and gluten.
These foods create havoc in some folks’ systems. Like spooning sugar into a car’s gas tank, these basic ingredients cause system failure â€" in humans everything from hives to asthma to even death.
It sucks to be allergic to gluten. Next to corn, gluten resides in a ton of popular dishes and products â€" everything from pizza to doughnuts (you know, the good stuff). Found in wheat, rye and barley, gluten causes serious health problems in people â€" and finding alternatives hasn’t, in the past, proven easy.
But that is changing.
