  1. I used to love that stuff! Too bad I can't have it anymore. :-( I've been allergic to corn for 2.5 months. Sierra Mist Natural does have citric acid, which is almost always from corn in the US so I have heard on another corn allergy forum. So if corn is an issue for you, be cautious.

  6. 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. Open Original Shared Link Depending on your level of sensitivity, beware of paper products like paper...
