Gluten free books?
One of the hottest selling books in the country these days is “Deliciously G-Free: Food So Flavorful They’ll Never Believe It’s Gluten-Free” by Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
It seems like every time I turn around somebody is talking about gluten. There are gluten free bakeries and gluten free beers. Now, there are even gluten free books like this one.
I don’t have a problem with gluten myself but there seem to be many people who are sensitive to it. Do you avoid gluten? How did you figure out that you have a sensitivity to it?
I happen to be rather fond of wheat. I’m not a gluten glutton but I cannot imagine drinking gluten free beer. That would be difficult for me.

Apparently “New Planet” makes pretty amazing gluten free beers - even by beer snob standards :) They just started servicing the area about a month or so ago too.

For many of us gluten is not a sensitivity it is a disease that can have eventual consequences if a strict gluten-free diet is not followed. Thus, the interest in great GF cookbooks. My daughter just got me The Gluten-Free Bible and I love it!
