My computer was broken, my hard drive had died, and I am reinstalling all my programs again. I hate when this happens.  I didn’t lose any information but starting from scratch on my computer reminds me of  moving.  I am telling you this because I am scattered all over the place so this post is scattered as well.

So I am playing another show with the Yeah Clementines.

Now on to food allergies.

The FDA requires companies to list the top eight allergens on their labels:

Milk, Eggs, Peanuts, Tree nuts (such as almonds, cashews, walnuts), Fish (such as bass, cod, flounder, Shellfish (such as crab, lobster, shrimp), Soy, Wheat.   Corn is becoming a major allergen but not required to be labeled, and may be hidden under the name of Citric Acid, Ascorbic Acid, Tocopherols, “Natural Flavors,” and many other ingredients.

Could you all sign this petition to the FDA? Tell them that Corn Needs to be Included in the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act.  If we can get this passed you may save a life or make some corn allergic person’s life a little easier. Thanks in advance.
