I too thought karo syrup was a no-no, so I googled it. Several MDs addressed this, but one actually had a reference:

Clinical Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Volume 4,Number 3,September 2003: "Pediatric neurologic potpourri: cases to remember"

"In the past, C. botulinum was also found in corn syrup, but this is no longer a risk factor for infant botulism because of a recent change in the processing formula."

For the complete source of statement, see: Olsen SJ, Swerdlow DL. Risk of infant botulism from corn syrup. In reply. Pediatr Infect Dis J 2000;19:584-5.

Hope this helps!

Smiles,

Carol
