I refuse to make fun of dietary restrictions after spending five years as a waiter rolling my eyes at gluten free people and then developing a gluten intolerance.

The universe is a tricky bitch. It gave me a literal pain in the ass.

You can be annoyed by gluten bad gluten free while recognizing the real pain of celiacs.

Just because it isn’t a visible disease does not mean everyone is in the right.

Nah I guarantee NOBODY is going through the gluten free diet unless they really believe there might be a chance they’re allergic. And you have to go gluten free for a bit to see if you are.

No you don’t, not for celiac. It’s symptoms are debilitating.

I know a case like that. He was unfortunate enough to have doctors that were unable to diagnose him properly. When he started the diet in his thirties and his absolutely debilitating health condition got a lot better in so many ways, it was such a relief!

Yeah, but that’s not the gluten allergy.

The guy I was talking about in the first paragraph was a celiac.

I was talking about the second.

That was meant as another example of people for whom trying the diet can be relevant.
