Debbie and listmates,

I just checked on Elmer's Glue (8/6/01)because my son started PPCD class

this week. It is OK, and corn free, too. Please see email below from

Elmer's/Ross.

Elsie,

How exciting...I still probably have to call because unfortunately

some synthetic materials also contain corn

Unless any other parent has corn issues and uses it freely.....do you

know of any???

Thanks again for taking the time to send this, I at least can let my

husband use it (he is Celiac) and he actually sometimes needs to use

glue LOL always makes me think of second grade art projects LOL
