<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Diane's reminder about spelt is a good one - especially since there seems to be a lack of knowledge about it "out there." Example - the May 1998 issue of _Veggie Life_ on page 18 - reader rights in asking about spelt flour, having heard that it's superior to regular wheat flour. The columnist replies that "the gluten in spelt wheat is more easily digested than the gluten in modern wheat, making it 'better' for many people with gluten intolerance and other wheat allergies." Yikes! As bad as my calling an Italina restaurant to find out if they had rice pasta, as I couldn't eat wheat pasta. The person who answered the phone went to check, then returned to tell me I didn't have anything to worry about - they didn't have wheat pasta - just semolina pasta... Chris Silker Plymouth MN
