One bit of evidence is how multi-child families have less incidence of these problems presumably due to the children all exposing each other to various things. Something to remember amongst all these theories though is we don't actually know for sure and it may well be a combination of many factors rather than one specific cause. I eat what I wan't to eat. I do try to avoid too much fast food and make an attempt to balance out my diet to a degree, but mostly I don't care. I really like white bread quite a bit, but I also eat wholegrain and other breads when the mood strikes me. Whatever I eat I'm going to die from something sooner or later anyway, I'm going to enjoy my food and not punish myself with "health food" for the crime of living. You're of course entitled to your choices, I will continue with mine.	dugimodo (138)

I sometimes used to nibble a corner off the loaf when bring one home from the local bakers. I can remember getting a barracuda loaf from the corner dairy. It was a beautiful white loaf which you could break in half and had a nice crust. Was often still warm and was lucky to make it home.	mikebartnz (21)

The message "may contain nuts, milk products" etc. if they cleaned out the machines this wouldn't happen. Inefficient laziness! They're all made on the same machinery. They have to put that in there, even though they hose it down. A friend used to work at a food manufacturing place that makes snack bars and things. Better to have it on there and have your ass covered than not. Thats why you see that, but you don't see the "nuts" in the ingredients list.	Chilling_Silence (9)

I still drink the water when out in the hills because the tinnies of Guinness are too heavy to carry	gary67 (56)
1273895	2012-05-10 02:29:00	Better to have it on there and have your ass covered than not. That is because of the great USA suing machine. As you say it is just to cover their ar$e.	mikebartnz (21)
