Once again, for those in the back of the class... If you have that many problems, or allergies that are that serious, you simply cannot think that anything is "unrelated" and you have absolutely no business eating anything for which you haven't personally verified the contents of each and every ingredient or preferably made for yourself. Processed food is just not meant for you.
The same thing happened to me and I don't have any allergies. Do you even know what Hydrogenated oil is if you weren't told? Until that article about the Oreo cookies was printed, I'll bet, unless you were a chemist or doctor, you never heard of it.
By the name and an application of reasoning, I could deduce that "hydrogenated oil" was most likely oil in which hydrogen gas had somehow been injected or blended for some reason. However, that is beside the point. Like I said before - if you are so afraid that something may harm you in processed food, go do the research and find out what the ingredients are. If you are too stupid or lazy to go do all the required research to determine what each and every ingredient consists of in processed food before you eat it, then it just isn't for you. Make your own food and quit your damn whining. But let the rest of us eat what we want!
