Just saw a post where one of the tags was "gluten free people are worse than vegans" and I am here blinking like... what's next, "people with peanut allergy are annoying"? Like sorry for not sucking it up and then going through physical and psychological discomfort by eating wheat because I get an autoimmune response, but I'd rather have people think I am annoying (which is big for me) than go through that again.

#and I am one of the lucky ones #my symptoms are all skin related with some mild brain stuff on the side #and I can eat spelt #and a tiny quantity of contamination will not give me a full episode #I read of people who got sick throwing up and with immense pain for a weel by being contaminated ONCE #gluten intolerance depending on how severe it is can wreck your intestines incredibly bad #like if you are gluten intolerant and keep having gluten apparently you are way more likely to get intestine cancer #like do you seriously think I would not choose to have pizza given the chance #I miss eating at a bakery holy shit but it's not worth it #I still have scarring from eating wheat because I didn't realize I developed an allergy #which by the way a lot of people develop in their late twenties/early thirties #also I WISH we were as vocal as vegans cause vegan products on the market started getting more numerous ever since they got more vocal #while I find wheat in rice and fish that wouldn't need any wheat #and gluten free products are triple the price for one third of the quantity and horrible quality - as in they are often stale #imagine paying eight euros for eight slices of toast and then the toast sucks #now imagine if you are minimum wage and have the stroke of luck of heing full celiac so you don't have an alternative option #you get the message that most food is not for you and society would rather see you starve than use corn starch as a thickener instead #i need to find a tag for personal updates
