Free Of Gluten, Free Of Thought, Part 22

, , , | Right | June 8, 2026

I work the fish counter at the grocery store.

Customer: “Is the salmon gluten-free?”

Me: “It’s just plain salmon, ma’am. We haven’t added any extra ingredients to it.”

Customer: “No, but was the salmon gluten-free? Like, did it eat gluten when it was alive?”

Me: “You’re asking if a fish, which lived in water, ate gluten, which comes from fields of wheat?”

Customer: “I’m just trying to be thorough.”

Me: “The salmon is gluten-free, ma’am.”

Customer: “Cool. Now what about the cod?”

It took a while to explain to her that none of our fish were invited to the wheatfields for whatever feast she imagined happened there.
