The problem with certain allergies is that there’s more to it than just the allergy.

What does that mean?  Well, for people with peanut allergies, it’s (more?) commonly known that if something-that-touched-peanuts comes into contact with the person, Very Bad Things can ensue.

But it’s the same for Gluten as well.  Did you know that if you deep-fry something with gluten and then fry something gluten-free, then it’s no longer gluten-free?

Be careful out there.  If a store says “gluten free” and you’re not sure, ask the kitchen to see if it’s ok.
