The point is that is a self-induced problem or at least one that you can avoid if you take care to not become reliant on some corporation for your "family" recipe.

Yes, we're commenting on an article that would have proven Food Stallman right.

Relying on processed flour and similar staples is hardly the same as relying on a specific unique cake mix.
