    Actually, there are very many people with Celiac Disease that do not follow the diet https://www.celiac.com/articles/21484/1/Stu...Diet/Page1.html. People with Celiac Diease do drink beer. It doesn't mean they should or shouldn't - but they do. Josh has confirmed Celiac Disease and I'm willing to bet he doesn't appreciate being told that he doesn't...

    Open Original Shared Link This list will make label reading easier for any Celiac, especially new Celiacs. With these companies, if you don't see "wheat rye barley malt oats" then its not "hidden" in starches, flavors, etc.
