    well, i have not read this before. but you should check your pancake and brownie mix's expiration dates, or anything with yeast for that matter. if it has expired, the yeast can develop mold, which inturn develops spores which have proven fatal if ingested. this post is just a warning for anyone reading it, im not saying "freak out" and throw away all your pancake mix, but just be carefull! :) hope this saves someone else's butt, i ran through my pantry and was shocked to find a few box's, including pancake mix, that had expired.

    ok, i didnt really read the whole thing but it said near the bottom, if you do not have a mold allergy, you shouldn't fear the pancake mix...? thats a bit wierd but ok. i will still avoid it.

    I was just wondering "if he had checked snopes". You had. Excellent my son. You are wise beyond your years.

    i hope nobody minds if i give this guy a bumb, i think its important for people to read if they have or know someone with the "mold allergy"... of course you really shouldnt eat anything with mold on it anyways!

    Thanks Nano for this post, I am severely allergic to molds, I hadn't thought of this source of molds! I've had a few outbreaks, not knowing the source....hmmmm.
