MARCH 19, 2001 The Food and Drug Administration has a developed a test that might reveal whether certain people are allergic to StarLink, a genetically modified corn product. The FDA developed the test because a number of consumers said they had allergic reactions to Starlink. Even though Starlink has not been approved for human use, it entered the consumer market because the company which made it failed to warn farmers not to mix it with traditionally raised corn. The FDA, however, warns its test has not been fully checked and won't provide a definite answer. Get the Story:
