Ran into another Food Nazi just now.

[The Industrial Atheist]

I have Celiac disease, so, by necessity I'm a food ethnic cleanser. lol

But I encourage others to eat healthy amounts of wheat, malt and barley. If they want to.

If you mean in liquid beer form, I am with you. But, even then, there is still a risk of over doing it. That still does not change that America's prohibition was a stupid idea.

You can argue, "that is not a good idea" without being a Nazi. On any subject, not just food, but any, for me it is about good logic and bad logic. If you are saying "I don't like it so others cant" I could care less what the reasoning is if that is all you are basing it on.

Having said that, the only reason you have assholes who argue over food tastes are mostly those who want to confuse marketing with right or wrong to increase product price.

There is a good argument to argue against the price of caviar, taste isn't the issue. Just like it would be harder to sell pork if you called it "pig ass". Some people like bull testicles, ok great, have at it, but there is still a reason they call them Rocky Mountain oysters instead of bull sperm factories.

Prohibition was what largely got the Mafia in America started. But what I meant was that I don't think a gluten free diet is going to help healthy people that don't have Celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. If anything maybe less carbs from eating that way can help if you eat way too many carbs already. The food that replaces the gluten baked goods with corn flour or rice flour or whatever is super expensive, usually. I know because if I want to eat pizza or bread or cookies that's how I have to get it.
