[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know someone who does not have celiac disease (she says she is sensitive to gluten) who said her niece needed to stay away from her because her shampoo wasn't gluten free. This was during a family reunion weekend at a resort. It was so very obviously a ploy for attention in that she made a big deal out of feeling excluded. (I guess she was offended that the family chose not to banish the 10 year old girl from the party?)[/quote]

Bullshit.[/quote]

What is BS? That she didn't want to be around the kid because of the shampoo? Or are you saying I myself made this up? [/quote]

I'm saying you made that up to make the gluten free dieter look as ridiculous as possible. Not buying it.[/quote]

Nope!

This is my friend's sister. Friend told me the story. Then the next time sister was in town, I met her. She (sister) made an off handed comment to me that she has to drive separately everywhere because she can't be in confined spaces with her niece due to the gluten in her shampoo. She said even when they're in the same house she feels the effects (niece is the only member of the family with long hair).

She's probably sensitive to smells. Either that or you have a weird bunch of friends and family. Birds of a feather flock together.[/quote]

I'm the person you are responding to. I thought it was the smell, too. But she made a point of saying it was the gluten. I even googled it myself. I don't believe her, which is why I posted about here, on a thread about using gluten sensitivity to garner attention. [/quote]
