Many gluten-free alternatives are just awful. I may not have had real cracker or cookie in a decade, but whatever this garbage is, should not be food.

The thing that is the absolute worst about gluten free food is how many times some company starts with gluten free and goes wild.

Oh look a gluten free key lime pie, but it’s also

  • dairy free
  • egg free
  • fat free
  • sugar free
  • tree nut free
  • vegan
  • made out of sustainably harvested kelp

Like fuck off, my spouse has a gluten intolerance not whatever the fuck this list is for.

I sometimes think about make a gluten free food company that is called “just gluten free” and it uses all the rest of the food stuffs. It’s hard enough to make bread that has a reasonable texture without gluten, we don’t need to make this an impossible task by excluding 80% of the rest of the ingredients that make food taste good.

Everyone can eat it! (But no one wants to!)

They just want to get as many markets as possible but it's always just. The saddest food.

Ok but celiac people all agree with this take. They aren't pretending it tastes good, they just have to eat it.

Edit: It occurs to me that you may be in the aforementioned group yourself and complaining about the outliers.

Worst pizza I ever tasted was gluten free.
