While I don’t have gluten allergies (at least, not according to any tests), I have a horrid shellfish allergy. I admit it; I have looked at a nice plate of shrimp or oysters and thought, “Hmmm – it *might* be worth the vomiting, diarrhea, hives, and potential death!” ;-) Thus, it’s easy for me to sympathize with people who really SHOULD be entirely gluten-free but sometimes can’t help sneaking something with gluten even when they know it’s going to hurt them: i.e. “mostly gluten-free.” |
