Oh, finally. Now my friend who's deathly allergic to corn and all its works might be able to stop shopping at Whole Foods!

There are still a lot of other corn products being used, but yeah, this does seem like a really big step in that direction.

Well, you know, if something makes her barf in that special way, she just doesn't buy it again. Keeping it away from her kid has been a struggle, though.

I've a friend allergic to corn who was over the moon when Pepsi did some of their sodas using real sugar! Not like she wanted the sugar either, but hey, she could drink it if she wanted to.
