"Now researchers at Kansas State University have shown that the fundamental
process occurring in gluten is the development of links among molecules of
tyrosine, an amino acid that is part of the gluten protein chain."





"This is, effectively, to assert the resurrection of the body, today as
throughout history an unavoidably revolutionary idea."
-Thomas Pynchon
