Really? If so, then everything you have sitting on your kitchen counter has dust mites in it, your hair has them, your lazyboy has them, your dog has then and your bed has them so you'd be dead before you read this. Is there anything thing out there that isn't hyped up to give the soccer moms another excuse to wrap their kids up in bubble wrap? Well, maybe. Here's this article by the same doctor where he says you can prevent allergies by introducing a wide variety of foods to kids as early as possible, around the 6 month age, duh, like the rest of the world does -

Beware the pancake!
Quick ban peanut butter, nuts, pancakes, hell ban everything but carrots and broccoli for the good of the village...idiots!
They will have to take my pancakes from my cold, dead hands....
Also know as the Corrie Syndrome.
There goes all IHOP franchises . . . gonna’ miss ‘em.
Let yer kids play in the dirt, or keep em in a bubble for life.
“Dr. says dust mites get into opened packages of pancake mix while in the home.”
As opposed to dust mites getting in the brain of this doctor....

Maybe he is trying to win the Pancake Peace Prize....
Here we go again. Now there’s gonna be another round of e-mails form a relative who’s kids magically become allergic to the very thing that on the news this month.

The wife sticks all flour products into the fridge right from the store. It should slow any growth.
Most things that I have seen grow in flour and grain has been weevils. It’s a good idea to check the sell by date in the store and refrigerate what you can
I always feel really full after eating pancakes, especially the fat ones that are the size of a large plate at the nearby diner with sides of hash browns and sausage. Is this an indication that the pancakes are toxic? Should I report the diner’s owner to the EPA, USDA and ATFE?
I think it’s true....it happened to Rachel Corrie :)
