Today, my husband and I found out that our daughter's chronic stomach aches are due to gluten intolerance, so we need to cut all wheat out of our diet. We're bakers. FML

Today, I found out I have celiac disease. I also happen to be a baker and will be constantly reminded of all the wheat products I can no longer enjoy. FML
Today, I found out that I have a gluten allergy. What this basically means is that I can't eat anything with wheat in it; bread, pasta, cake, you name it. I am Italian, this basically limits me from eating any of the awesome food my family makes almost every night. Here I come plain rice. FML
Today, I'm quite ill. My new step-mother believes that the genetic wheat allergy I got from my mother would have gone away since she's now married to my father instead. Looks like dad picked a winner. FML
Today, I learned I'm not allergic to gluten. My mom has kept me on a gluten-free diet since I was 5. She was convinced I was allergic to it. I'm 25 and I am writing this over my first slice of pizza in 20 years. FML
Today, we live in a tiny trailer. My doctor said I have celiac disease. My dad, who takes things too literally, came back with gluten-free dog food. I don’t even have a dog. FML
Today, I had a lovely gluten-free pizza out at a local restaurant. After I'd finished, they informed me it wasn't in fact gluten-free. I am Celiac and this means I will be ill for the next six weeks. FML
Today, after extensive tests due to pregnancy-related issues, I've been told my diet must change. I can no longer eat salt, sugar, gluten, or meat, and lactose is questionable. The doctor hopes it will end after the birth. Seven months to go. FML
Today, my grandmother is shocked that literally all of her kids and grandkids have mental handicaps. She won't admit it's because her and my grandfather are first cousins, and is claiming instead it's, "because of gluten." FML
Today, I'm taking care of my 12-year-old daughter because my ex-wife thought she could cure our daughter's lactose intolerance by sneaking milk into her soy breakfast. The milk had expired. FML
Today, my two favorite things in the world are Pizza and Beer... I now discover I have Celiac and can't have either. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why do you have to cut it out of all of your diets, instead of just your daughter's? Also, it's possible to bake gluten-free food.

It is possible to have gluten-free flour, I believe. You could even specialize in making bread for those who have intolerance of gluten.

FlyingFox408: If she continues to eat it she could develop cancer and a ton of other serious issues. Asswipe you know nothing.

or they could make both so they attract gluten-eating and GF customers, and keep their daughter feeling included.

My sister has Celiac and her father makes all of her breads. It's easier than making regular bread and it's not that hard. You're bakers, use Google and stop complaining.

So offer gluten free to your customers. Many people are gluten intolerant or have Celiac's. My eldest is severely allergic to dairy. You just learn to live with it. Good luck.

I make gluten free baked goods all the time and people don't know the difference from ones with wheat flour. I know quite a few people with celiac disorder. don't say FML it's easy to switch her diet without altering yours too much. make gluten free stuff for those customers who can't digest gluten as well I know of several bakeries that make gluten-free things.

I found out I'm gluten intolerant about a year ago. Its not that bad. More expensive to buy food, but hey, I'm not getting sick off of what I eat anymore. They have some good flour out there now that works the same as regular wheat floor. Look up C4C (cup for cup) flour. Red Mill works moderate too but you have to add zantham gum and other additives to make it work. You can still bake gluten free and make it taste uber yummy. You just have to change the products you cook with.
