Why struggle to be gluten free if you DON'T HAVE CELIAC DISEASE? This is just another diet fad. I remember in the '80s, so many of my friends were eating "Royal Jelly". Diet pills. The cabbage soup diet. Then, low fat. Then, Atkin's. Then, low carb. Fasting. Then pay a fortune for nasty diet meals delivered to you. If you have celiac disease, it's great to have so many gluten free products WHICH ARE CERTAINLY MORE EXPENSIVE than regular products. Don't be a sucker and buy into this. Your doctor will certainly tell you if you have celiac disease. (At least the cabbage soup was cheap and delicious!) Thank you for your feedback. The gluten-free diet is in fact not a fad, but a true concern for many; not just those with Celiac disease, but for those with diabetes and certain auto-immune disorders and for those who just have a simple intolerance to gluten or who feel better when they avoid it. Fortunately people are allowed to make choices about their diets and I hope I am able to help those who are avoiding gluten, whether they are doing it by choice or not. The ingredients used in gluten-free baking are expensive and the undertaking can be overwhelming at times, but hopefully we can be a good resource to help folks utilize their time and ingredients efficiently with the information and recipe tips from our website. ~Amy
