 JW> Loblaws No Name instant noodles, origin not mentioned

 ML> Does that imply they're a domestic product?

Yeah, no, sure, maybe.

 JW> Naeng myun (or naengmyeon), a Korean cold noodle soup

 ML> Nah.

I am old school and have no truck with cold soups or warm salads.
 
 RH> Corn starch doesn't seem to bother him

 JW> Most corn allergies are a reaction to a particular corn

While true celiacs need to be very careful, people who think they are
gluten sensitive and are reducing or "watching" their gluten are
delusional. With a lot of other allergies the severity can range
across a fairly broad spectrum; some people have to be more
cautious than others about trace amounts.
