Food is love, but not all food loves me. As someone with coeliac disease, I need to avoid some ingredients in order to not spend the rest of the day on the toilet.
If you could keep the following ingredients away from me, we’ll have a great time:
Ingredient | Examples |
Gliadin-rich gluten Often simply called “gluten” in ingredient listings | Cereals like wheat, durum and spelt. Rice and corn are not rich in gliadine and are absolutely fine. These two cereals are therefore often not considered “gluten” anyway. |
Dairy from cow’s milk (lactose) | Milk, cheese, lactose |
Yeast | Alcohol, and funnily enough: most easily available gluten-free bread |
I also take it easy with sugar and peanuts in normal daily life, but it’s really no issue if I eat some of that every once in a while. These two ingredients only cause discomfort if I eat it for multiple days in large quantities.
Are you unsure about an ingredient? Please run it by me, I’ll be happy to take a look! Thank you 🙂
