The thing that sucks about using a controlled diet as a tool in managing chronic illness is that so many people project weight-loss culture and/or their own emotional attachments to food onto it

"Teehee, maybe you'll lose weight!" NO ACTUALLY THAT MEANS I'M DOING IT WRONG "That sounds like an eating disorder" BUDDY I HAVE A FUCKED UP GUT AND IF I DON'T WORK WITH THAT I'LL SUFFER "But what about holiday/birthday/other special occasion???" I WILL MANAGE IT'S FINE NOBODY WILL DIE IF I CAN'T EAT POTATO SALAD "I couldn't live without eating X" THEN PERISH, RIP TO YOU BUT I'M DIFFERENT

I think a big part of it is weight-loss culture making a restricted diet into a form of virtue-signaling, so people feel like they have to react in some way. A smaller part may be the growing trend of people expecting their particular special diet to be accommodated everywhere they go (laughs in histamine, gluten and corn intolerance)

The expense of a special diet is a whole other can of worms that I probably don't need to go into here. HOPE U LIKE MILLET AND POTATOES
