The headline is attributed to a range of individuals, from Patton to Thomas Paine, but it came to mind recently when the FDA (some would say finally) reached a decision about the standard for gluten-free in foods and beverages.
The funny part is that saying came to mind because, for so long, it seemed like the FDA had opted to choose none of those options when it came to a gluten-free standard. Rumors indicated the agency would establish the rule in 2009, if not earlier. Yet, here we stand four years later, with a standard finally announced (the presumed 20 parts per million) but not taking effect for still another year, all as the market for gluten-free products continues to grow, if not at the same clip as in years past.
