Easter we had a crowd over for dinner. A couple brought a homemade cheese cake. Politely, I said "Boy that sure looks good, is that a graham cracker crust?". He said, "Yeah, but you can just eat the top"....No, no it doesn't work that way and promptly asked my husband to clean the spring-form pan right in front of them. And they just stared at me.

It truely is endless.

here is my fav. gluten story....

I was at my friends house and there were about 5 of us, so my friend heated up some chicken nuggets (which of course i cant eat), so i tell her that i'll just have an apple or something cause there's wheat in the chicken nuggets. She looks at me completely seriously and says, "no there isnt." So we look at the ingredients and yes there is wheat in it. So my friend says, "Oh well you can just peel off the breaded coating, right?" It took me awhile to explain to her why i couldnt eat the chicken nuggets even if i did peel off the coating.

Last semester in my Spanish class, we somehow got on the subject of food. I told them I couldn't have gluten/wheat. One of the girls in the class said, "Well, I know to never get you a sandwich or anything like that now." Then the dude beside me said, "What are you talking about?! There's only wheat in wheat bread! She can have regular bread!". I nearly laughed in his face. "What do you think in regular bread?" I asked him. "Flour." he told me, and also said to the class that there was no wheat in flour either.
