<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi. Just wanted to share a few notes I got back from my post about being astonished there was wheat in fabric sizing. I found a website listing products available to fabric manufacturers, which also include potato starch and corn starch as possible additives. Everybody mentioned to me that they wash their fabrics first. I did wash all of my fabrics the past few days and ironed them, and got swollen ears and slight asthma from breathing something I was allergic to, so evidently washing once is not enough to get everything out. And that they wash all washable clothing before wearing them. A couple people mentioned there is also wheat in the library paste that is used in book bindings. And that it can be used as a finisher on paper! That might explain this persistant sore on the side of my hand that runs along a page when I write. And wheat is often used in playdoughs. That one I knew. And somebody else mentioned there is also pesticides on fabric, evidently to keep bugs from eating all that starch. So, here's to keeping each other informed. :-) Helen, ID
