> I don't think it's quite as simple as that... I was told (way back in my childhood) that allergies (food or otherwise) are genetic -- that we pass them on, if not always in exactly the same form. If so, then they spread like a weed (sorry, I can't remember the English term... "geometrical progression"? when you have 1 in first generation, 2 in the second, 4 in the third, etc?). > Tamara Genuine allergies have always existed and have been passed on with other characteristics . . . but allergies to food as it had been *before* researchers began modifying for various 'wanted' characteristics were rare enough to be worth 'publishing' . . . But varieties of the food crops we *used* to eat have 'gone extinct' along with animals/birds in favor of what could stand shipment . . . then warehousing/storage took its toll so now we're eating plastic along with our food . . . for the last few years we've been eating GE/GM food, too - soybeans, canola, corn, rice among them . . . what are you thinking when a man who has saved his own seed for years to maintain those genes gets hauled into court by horror-Monsanto & kin because *their* s__t has blown into and polluted his *healthy* food but they are suing *him* for 'stealing' their patented food' ???? And who is tracking the allergies to food that now includes pesticide *in its genes* ?
