This is a forwarded message. FYI
I recently made a batch of pancakes for my
healthy 14-year-old son, using
a
mix that was in our pantry. He said that they tasted "funny,"
but ate
them
anyway. About 10 minutes later, he began having difficulty breathing and
his
lips began turning purple. I gave him his allergy pill, had him sit on
the sofa
and told him to relax. He was wheezing while inhaling and exhaling. My
husband,
a volunteer firefighter and EMT, heated up some water, and we had my son
lean
over the water so the steam could clear his chest and sinuses. Soon, his
breathing became more regular and his lips returned to a more normal
color. We
checked the date on the box of pancake mix and, to my dismay, found it
was very
outdated. As a reference librarian at an academic institution, I have the
ability to search through many research databases. I did just that, and
found
an article the next day that mentioned a 19-year-old male DYING after
eating
pancakes made with outdated mix. Apparently, the mold that forms in old
pancake
mix can be toxic! When we told our friends about my son's close call, we
were
surprised at the number of people who mentioned that they should check
their
own pancake mix since they don't use it often, or they had purchased it
some
time ago. With so many people shopping at warehouse-type stores and
buying
large sizes of pancake mix, I hope your readers will take the time to
check the
expiration date on their boxes. Also, beware of outdated cake, brownie
and
cookie mixes.
