At the bottom of the msnbc article link, there is a place to vote for whether you would recommend the article on a scale of 1 to 7. Then, they show the Top Ten recommended stories. Maybe if we all vote, it will spark some interest for Dateline to do a story on food alleries!
Here is another link to information about this new code. It is from the industry magazine Food Engineering: [url="http://www.foodengineeringmag.com/articles/2001/0501/0501mfgnews.htm"]http://www.foodengineeringmag.com/articles/2001/0501/0501mfgnews.htm[/url]

I agree! This article was also in my local newspaper. Any mention of allergies in the news always makes me happy. I guess we will all have to start buying from just those companies whose labels tell us what we need to know. I hope alot of them do voluntarily comply. We will see.
