I just found this article: http://www.allergy-details.com/food-allergy/corn-allergy-mine-field/
Another challenging source of corn, for those allergic, is in vehicle airbags. When the airbag goes off, the powder containing corn based talcum powder is released from the airbag into the vehicle. With the passengers breathing and their clothes and skin covered in this powder reaction can be most unfriendly. The reaction is also ill timed, especially immediately after a car accident when people are distracted.
I guess I need to have my epi-pen handy if I get into an accident and my airbag deploys.
Yes, because that is the first thought to anyone's mind when in an accident....well it's in ours now! Thanks for the article here and on the forum!
