Just read this article through Allergic Living where the FDA is taking public comments regarding a *risk assessment* of whether safe thresholds for food allergies can be established.
This sounds scary as I'm thinking the safe threshold would be NONE!
Thoughts?

Hi nonuteen,
There is a thread on this topic in main that has some interesting comments.
FDA to Assess Safe Food Allergen Levels (http://foodallergysupport.olicentral.com/index.php/topic,6532.0.html)
BTW, welcome to the board!

Mods, should the threads be merged?
(Eventually, they probably should-- but temporarily, that is one nice thing about having that merge function-- individual threads can run on multiple portions of the boards until they aren't 'current events' anymore, and then they can be merged easily.)
