I also think, because some people do have true gluten or allergy issues, that the food industry has jumped on the bandwagon marketing-wise to promote their products.

What people on the diet have done is effectively negated the people that do have true allergies to it. Many cooks now hear someone wants something gluten free and they think a little won't hurt because these people aren't really allergic. |

Is gluten that layer of goodness in a snickers bar?

Imagine being a chef for a catering business that was responsible for cooking the food at a Gluten-Free Expo attended by approximately 2500 people.
Imagine being a chef for a catering company that was responsible for a 4500 person plate up that had roughly 15% of that number demand gluten free meals that were not specified on the original contract. I could go on for hours... |

I just went on a first date with a boring ass basic bitch.
She talked about how she was allergic to gluten, she was drinking craft wheat beers. 99.9999999999% of these people are ****ing morons. These people that are experiencing health improvements from the gluten diet are getting them from being on a ****ing diet period and sticking to it. |

Same with how they switched to adding green corners to their boxes to show they are recyclable material even if they are not. Same with all the pink shit added during October because people will buy a box with pink parts on it because they believe money goes to breast cancer. I am shocked there is not more gluten free products, that have never had gluten in the first place, say they are gluten free. Gluten free water. |

It was useful for the soups because wheat can be hidden. In fact it's in so many products you'd be surprised. I bought crackers at Costco a month ago that advertised them as ancient grains made with: millet, amaranth, quinoa and teff. Got sick. Turns out the first ingredient when I checked the fine print was the first ingredient on the list meaning they're mostly wheat. I usually check but due to the promotion of the other grains it didn't seem like a wheat cracker at all! |

I just eat sensible most of the time and try to exercise when I can. I still eat foods that are "bad" for me. Moderation is key with everything.
