corn Streaks begone! This corn-based alcohol allows our products to dry quickly for a streak-free shine.

would you be concerned about that at all if your corn intolerant?

There you go! You found one with corn! Makes you wonder what is in our cleaners & if corn is a normal ingredient?

If its an alcohol, supposedly its probably distilled. But...if it were me & I had problems with corn, I would try to find something else. Maybe white vinegar?

Corn makes me so sick that I wouldn't intentionally buy anything that listed a corn ingredient. I'm sure it could possibly be in my current cleaners, but I haven't gotten that far in my corn research. But then, I'm sensitive enough that I got sick handling powdered sugar (contains cornstarch).

The smell of Greenworks gets to me, as I've gotten more sensitive to scents, and it makes my fingers and hands itch. White vinegar is corny, so best to avoid it. Here's a great list of all the corn allergens if you haven't seen this link/list already.

Depending on your level of sensitivity, beware of paper products like paper plates, cupcake liners, styrofoam cups, plastic cutlery, toilet paper and paper towels (cornstarch), and all feminine products (cornstarch and/or polysorbate). Also, be very cautious of all medications (google for inactive ingredients), "___ flavor" ingredient, extracts with alcohol (potato vodka is safe) and perfumes....all corny.

I've been "allergic" to corn since May of this year. Skin prick test was negative, but my esophagus swells when I eat corn, corn syrup, cornstarch. And stuff like citric acid, vinegar, xanthan gum gives me hives, headaches, GI upset, etc.

      Your response on this matter is what I expect. You’ve had a similar episode years ago, but this one is lasting longer!

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?
