Gluten Out Of Ten For Ignorance, Part 3
(My son loves going to a pancake restaurant. I, on the other hand have a gluten allergy and it is therefore a very difficult place for me, but I agree to try it. I ask for an allergy menu, which they do not have, but the manager comes over to talk to me.)
Me: “Hi, I have a gluten allergy and can’t have anything with wheat in it.”
Manager: “No problem. We took wheat off the menu. We no longer use wheat in the pancakes.”
Me: “Then what do you put in your pancakes?”
Manager: “Buttermilk.”
Me: “What holds the buttermilk together and makes the pancake?”
Manager: “Just regular white flour.”
Me: “Um, regular white flour is made from wheat.”
Son: “Mom, you win. Let’s go someplace else for breakfast.”
