Starlink was a variety of Bt corn intended to kill certain insect pests. Starlink contained a different Bt gene than other Bt corn varieties and microbial Bt sprays used by conventional and organic farmers. The Bt protein produced by Starlink corn did not pass the allergenicity testing required by EPA, so EPA considered it to be a potential allergen. Based on those test results, EPA decided in 1998 that Starlink corn could be used only for animal feed, not human food.

Because of the double coat, the BT may lose dander, which is the cause of allergies from dogs. It is recommended that if you or another family member has pet allergies, you spend some time with BTs before purchasing one. This will help to tell if a reaction will occur. Some people react to saliva and some BTs love to kiss, so your reaction to a licky dog should also be considered.

Corn Syrup is a thick, sweet syrup created by processing cornstarch with acids or enzymes. It comes in light or dark forms. Light corn syrup has been clarified to remove all color and cloudiness. Dark corn syrup, because it has caramel favor and coloring added to it, has a deeper color and a stronger flavor. Corn syrup is particularly popular as an ingredient in frostings, candies, jams and jellies because it inhibits crystallization. It's also used as a pancake syrup.

A corn is a localized thickening of the skin as a result of pressure. Oftentimes, corns come about on the top of the toes where there is pressure from the shoes. Nevertheless, they also occur at the sole of the foot and in between toes. Specific corns may become intertwined with the nerves of the skin. These corns are remarkably painful. Frequently, corns build up a core which is repeatedly referred to as the "root" by patients.

Like pollens, mold spores are airborne allergens that are abundant, easily carried by air currents, and allergenic in their chemical makeup. Found almost everywhere, mold spores in some areas are so numerous they often outnumber the pollens in the air. Fortunately, however, only a few dozen different types are significant allergens. In general, Alternaria and Cladosporium (Hormodendrum) are the molds most commonly found both indoors and outdoors throughout the United States.

Our products are filled with whole corn which is grown as cattle feed and not as popping corn. Popcorn has a hard outer shell that causes pressure to build up inside when heated and then suddenly explode. You won't have a cloth bag full of popcorn after heating our Maine Warmers, but it sure will smell like a bowl of freshly popped corn! Dogs and cats may chew through the fabric of a "Warmer" thinking they have found a snack. Mice love whole corn!

HFCS is a liquid mixture of about equal parts of glucose and fructose from cornstarch. Same sweetness as sucrose.

The corn removal procedure involves the trimming of corn by shaving off the dead layers of skin with the use of a scalpel. Although the idea of corn surgery may seem extreme to some people, it is the most efficient method of long-lasting relief from corn pain. Corn removal is effective in getting rid of the pressure, friction and other uncomfortable pain sensations. Candidates for this procedure are those who have corns on their feet.

Hypo-allergenic is defined as having a decreased tendency to provoke an allergic reaction. But because there are so many possible chemical intolerances and everybody is different, no product is truly 100% non-allergenic (well, except maybe water!). That being said, all of Planet's products are indeed hypo-allergenic. Our products do not contain any unnecessary additives and we avoid using harsh chemicals that are likely to cause allergies, but are commonly found in other brands.

Are you kidding? Me? Cultivate corn? That’s too much trouble, my friend. Eight or nine inches of straw or grass clippings down the rows and through the plants does all the cultivating needed.

Cultivating corn using non-organic techniques typically requires large amounts of pesticides (meaning a broad range of herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides and other chemicals used to protect crops). Monsanto introduced a pesticidal corn seed that produced it’s own insecticide in every cell. “Much of the nation’s cornfields now consist of pesticidal corn, which helps protect the corn crops against the corn borer pest.
