I agree the people who don’t eat gluten for their own personal reasons unrelated to medical issues just need to handle that themselves. That means not requesting special meals at gatherings other people host. Because that’s not a need, it’s a preference.[/quote]

This is my story; at 36 and newly postpartum, I began to have (true, diagnosed not just a “bad headache”) migraines that would have me down for the count, in bed, missing out on life. Determined through a GP that gluten was a likely trigger. Went to a nutritionist to further clean up my diet. Nearly immediately, my migraines stopped.

That was a decade ago and I only get an occasional migraine if I go off track and indulge or intentionally glutenize myself or if it’s accidental like the time Noodles gave me regular and not GF pasta!

All said, I never! expect any special accommodations! I will politely decline cake or anything that isn’t obviously GF. I also come prepared with my own snacks, can eat later, have just eaten…I won’t even mention my GF preference.[/quote]
