Almost Glutened by a Raven !!

The purpose of this little story is to give you all a smile and to say gluten lurks everywhere, even where we least expect it!

We live in a rural area with a lot of wild creatures close by.  Yesterday a raven flew overhead and dropped a piece of whole wheat bread, smack, in the middle of our small doggie yard.  We saw the raven fly over and we saw it drop the bread!  We were in the doggie yard in a heartbeat to retrieve the bread before any dogs could find it.  I couldn't help but laugh at the thought that had we not seen it happen, had one of the dogs eaten that bread and then given me a slurpy doggie kiss - ooops!  I could have been a little sick that night and never known the true why!

Very believeable Elijah!  Is your back yard near a brook?  Did they bring you hot dogs too? :)

Oh my gosh! You are so right; you would have driven yourself crazy trying to figure out how you had gotten glutened. I'm glad you saw it happen & were able to retrieve it before the doggies could get it. Now that the danger is over; it is a funny story.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
