[quote=Anonymous]We have a lot of food preferences in my family - some of them are medical, some are not. My mom has an autoimmune condition that is easier for her to manage if she avoids dairy and wheat. She's been vegetarian for most of her life, so at home, she and my stepdad eat mostly vegan. When they are out, however, they are not bratty about it, and she doesn't try to regulate what the rest of us eat. For the most part, everyone is happy to accommodate. She will also splurge and eat something with dairy AND wheat in it, because she does truly love bread and cheese and giving them up was a sacrifice. As for how you personally deal with your SIL, you don't. You treat her politely, try to steer the conversation to other matters, and go with the flow. Visits don't last forever.[/quote]
