[quote=Anonymous]The good news is you really don't have to give up anything! Make cookies and cupcakes using alternative kinds of flour (I've only ever been told to limit the use of almond flour, haven't seen warnings about any of the others so I use them freely), or buy the pre-made gluten-free kind. The best piece of advice I can give you is when you need to eat out, to be very specific with waiters that it is for celiac's and not just a gluten-intolerance. A lot of people are going gluten-free because of less urgent health situations (e.g. I am gluten-free to control my eczema and headaches) but don't mind if their food is mildly contaminated (or wouldn't even know). Restaurants with gluten-free options have a dedicated process to ensuring no contamination for those diners who truly MUST avoid exposure, but you have to make sure they know that you'll need them to be very careful and aren't just a casual gluten-avoider.[/quote]
