[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] It's very easy for there to be cross contamination with gluten. I've known kids, for example, who have gotten sick because someone spread butter on their toast, and then butter from the same butter stick was used to cook something else. I also think that it's probably easier for everyone to know that everything in the kitchen is safe. So, someone can come in and cook whatever they want without concern. I think the issue here is the insistence on having both kitchens. The family should not be asking for both kitchen.[/quote]
