It used to be that natural ingredients were good, but as western civilization has gotten more concerned about health, immune diseases and allergies have gone way up. Wheat is listed as a 'known allergen' by the US Department of Agriculture.
Now 131,000 pounds of pizza products shipped to Trader Joe's stores nationwide have been recalled because they contain wheat. Yes, wheat. The product that set off the agricultural revolution in Europe and made them world leaders. The product that fed the Roman Empire. The product we subsidize to keep it profitable for farmers because food is a strategic resource.
The actual risk is obviously low but because a USDA inspector discovered the presence of wheat was not on the ingredient label, the products were recalled en masse.
Hyper-concerned helicopter parents should look out for Trader Joe's Pizza Al Pollo Asado.
