Dr. says dust mites get into opened packages of pancake mix while in the home. Restaurant made pancakes not so much since they go through the mix more quickly than at home.

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 -

“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....

Mommies should try making real pancakes rather than using mixes. Of course, if you never open a package of white flour, it’ll get those mites as well.

Absolutely. May I be so bold as to say that we should NOT take every flu shot that comes out. we have to develop out immune systems and put up with a little runny nose once in a while.

We can develop worse allergies from some of these vaccines than if we just let nature take its course (not saying we should avoid ALL vaccines. Obviously some have been needed)

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?
