[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't understand why you can't have some gluten products in the kitchen. If plates are washed and you keep your food separate from everyone else's, is there really that big of a risk of contamination? I am familiar with celiac, and have many friends who do not eat gluten because of it or related issues, but I have never heard about a need to fully separate all products. [/quote] There is alway a risk and child may be more severe than you or the person we know. We had one friend make a big fuss about being gluten free (he did have stomach issues) and I went out of my way to cook special meals for him and get him gluten free bread to realize he just ate the regular stuff. I gave up special meals after that. Its just like a peanut allergy. Some kids I know cannot be around it, others can but not eat it. If there are two kitchens, one should be GF, the other not. My kid does not eat meat and is picky so we could never make it work.[/quote]
