Traveling Gluten-Free in America: What You Need to Know
| September 16, 2016
Be Gracious
Don’t be the guy who uses the gluten-free lifestyle to assert control. No one wants to travel with that guy.
Do what you can to be gracious, both to your travel companions and to the people (and wait staff) you meet along the way. Whether gluten-free was your choice or something your body chose for you, it’s inconvenient, and it’s worth acknowledging that in the sometimes complicated context of travel.
Do your part to be prepared, to have back-up plans, and to make the situation a little easier on you and your gang. And always be kind to the people who serve your food. They wield the gluten powers!
