After seeing people die from allergies I'd mention that they are, or at least can be, a big deal. No one said they ain't. I too know people that have died from them. It seems like 1 out of every 5 kids can't eat a PBJ these days. NEVER heard of such stuff 30-40 years ago

I don't know the answer to that. Whether serious allergies are more of a problem now or not. I know me dad nearly died from a penicillin injection 60+ years ago, and that could have been a reaction to all the goop they put in the injections back then and not the penicillin. And some kids in school were sensitive to various things but it just seems so much more prevalent now. Maybe it's just more diagnostic accuracy. Add: http://www.foodallergy.org/file/facts-stats.pdfThey're documented to be on the rise. Why is another question.

Southern comfort on the gums when teething. Growing up on and having the run of ACRES of farm land with horses, goats chickens, ducks, beef cows and dairy cattle, hell even exposed numerous times to cow pox. To this day a small pox VAX won't take on me as I am naturally immune.
