Only heated up what was left over from lunch. :)

I know there are some people who are gluten intolerant.  Celiac
Disease.   I'm not one of those people.

 
Last summer my son was diagnosed with celiac disease. He has issues that
cleared up within days of giving up gluten.  Then there are people who
are convinced that gluten is bad for you even if they aren't gluten
intolerant.  Get a group of young people together and you are bound to
get several vegetarians, a vegan or two, some who are  gluten intolerant
and some who are lactose intolerant.
 
 
 

Of course there are people like that.  But don't get me started on
Vegans who believe eating honey is harmful to the bees and one shouldn't
milk cows (for some silly reason) because it's somehow harmful to them.

The dairy industry's a very nasty industry, and not because of the
milking. I'm not a vegan but I understand why people are.
 

Don't eat cheese!  But sure, we'll make up some fake Vegan cheese that
contains a ton of vegetable oil and preservatives and stuff that maybe
makes it taste a little bit like cheese.  WTF?  I don't want to hear
that kind of preaching about food.  Eat whatever you want, but don't
bitch at me for what I eat.

You're abusing animals. Why can't people preach about that? Wouldn't
you preach if you saw your neighbour beat up their little girl all the
time?

Don't want to hear about any fad diet
trends, either.  I eat what I want, when I want. Moderation is the key.

Fad diets are for people who can't control how much they eat. It's
their only way not to become overweight. In an ideal world, they'd
simply eat a lot less, but not everybody has that kind of self
control.
