An unexpected night in the Hilton owing to massive
thunderstorms allows this extra uninterruption.

Does that imply they're a domestic product?

Yeah, no, sure, maybe.

I'd have hoped for some forthcomingness in the
game of origins.

Naeng myun (or naengmyeon), a Korean cold noodle soup

Nah.

I am old school and have no truck with cold soups or warm salads.

I tend in that direction, but there's wiggle room in
the definitions of soup and salad.

Corn starch doesn't seem to bother him

Most corn allergies are a reaction to a particular corn
protein. Purified starch and regular and high fructose corn
syrup don't contain any corn protein. I suspect corn oil is
safe too.

I'd have thought so, as it is pretty purified. On the
other hand, it has a distinct corny aroma, which leads
one to suspect some kind of impurities.

Strikes me that (as with the gluten people) folks
shy away from even a tiny probability of a minuscule
contamination. How justifiable that may be is an
up in the air question.

While true celiacs need to be very careful, people who think they are
gluten sensitive and are reducing or "watching" their gluten are
delusional. With a lot of other allergies the severity can range

There's a substantial amount of dietary looniness
out there. Turns out my friend Dave's sweetie has
restrictions against gluten, corn, dairy, pork, soy,
tuna and swordfish, and a couple things I forget at
the moment, and it turns out these were dictated by
some kind of spiritual advisor.

across a fairly broad spectrum; some people have to be more
cautious than others about trace amounts.

True, and there are all sorts of reasons and contributing
factors; I'd be more willing to attribute most of it to
instability but recall the vigorous efforts of the dairy
industry to attribute lactose intolerance to neurosis.

... Why are Gluten free carrots premium priced?

No animals were harmed in the manufacture of these carrots.
