Oh, and then they can also overpay for fad-focues "gluten-free" products that look, smell and taste like shit, but are perfect for parting suckers from their money.
My father is allergic to gluten. We're thankful for this fad, as they created an entire industry of gluten-free stuff, that wouldn't be there if only for the allergic and celiac people.

Not necessarily. People can have it for decades without knowing anything is wrong. Maybe more farting than average. Maybe, shall we say, softer than most people, but since people rarely compare themselves in that regard, type 5 or 6 stools might seem normal to someone who has them often.
Or not. Celiac disease can be completely asymptomatic.
I assume the girl had some symptoms, or her parents wouldn't have had her tested. But that doesn't by any means mean the symptoms were debilitating, or the grandmother wouldn't likely have doubted them.

I don't get it. I tried some of the stuff out of curiosity from a buffet, it's fucking horrible. If I had that disease, I'd simply stay away from that kind of grains, period. Maybe stock some substitute flour for when a recipe doesn't work without, like Bechamel sauce. But eating cake that tastes like sweetened sawdust just so I can feel like I'm eating "cake"? Fuck no. Worse than "vegetarian meat".

This. My mother had me on gluten-free for a while when she thought that might improve my mental state. Everything tasted like someone thought bread could be aged like wine. It's like being vegetarian: everything is shit, Impossible Burger notwithstanding. Eat stuff because it's tasty, not because it's some poor mock-up of what other people are eating.

Sounds like a great way to do the exact opposite!

If you think vegetarian is like that, you're doing it wrong. The trick is it's got to be all food that is simply good food in its own lights that doesn't use meat (or gluten, if that's what you're avoiding). There are some awesome recipes out there; middle eastern cuisine is a good place to look for inspiration, for example.
The people who have it really tough are those who have to avoid alliums.

One of my favorite cookbooks is The Vegetarian Epicure. I don't cook from it often, as the recipes tend to be very labor intensive, but the results are worth it. Unfortunately, I just realized neither of my favorite recipes from it are gluten-free. They could be adapted fairly easily, one without too much loss, but the other, well, cardboard pastry crust isn't really terribly appealing.
The people who have it really tough are those who have to avoid alliums.
My mother was not allergic to all alliums, only to garlic. I grew up unaware of the wonderfulness of that magic substance.

That's bad enough, but there's a friend of my family who is allergic to onion. I'm pretty sure that it is impossible to make almost all nice savoury food without at least some onion involved. (Even steaks and burgers are simply made greater by lots of fried onion or some good onion rings.)

I think you mean “ruined by”. Burger, bun, ketchup, fries, any other products need not apply.

TR.
1 - onion is better than no onion
2 - you excluded bacon and bacon definitely improves the situation
-
@loopback0 Bacon on a burger just gets limp, and drowned out by the ketchup and beef. Bacon is far better as its own separate entree.

Onions suck. Oh, I can eat them if they're cooked into a sauce or whatever, but something about the taste and texture of intact onions makes me gag. I have thrown tantrums about the mere idea of onions in green beans.

@Gąska There's no such thing as a gluten allergy. Also, food allergies quite often end in people not being able to breathe so it's a very bad idea to fuck around with allergies.
What she probably had was a gluten sensitivity. Which can be subject to spontaneous remissions.
Celiac's disease, by the way, is a life-long issue.
In essence, grandma was an asshole of the highest order.
The symptoms he described are not symptoms of Celiac's disease. Nor are they symptoms of "gluten sensitivitiy".
What she had was probably a bona fide wheat allergy, and she's fortunate that her reaction was apparently mild and that her body got used to it after repeated exposures. Wheat allergies can result in anaphylactic shock and can be deadly.

Sure, as long as you use the ketchup for the fries and load up the burger with cheese, bacon, pickles, mustard, tomato, lettuce, jalapeno, grilled mushrooms, ...
Yes to the onion rings also. A side of onion rings is always welcome.

Then it wasn't crispy enough. Chewy bacon is great to eat all by itself, but on a sandwich it needs to be crispy so you're not trying to chew through it without dragging it all off the sandwich.
and drowned out by the ketchup
That's because you're putting the ketchup on wrong. It goes on the fries, not the burger. Dummy.
If it must go on the burger, then use just a little bit. It definitely shouldn't drown out the bacon.

One of the local burger chains has the option for getting bacon and melted cheese on your fries. It's good.

Bacon and ketchup do not belong on the same burger. Use barbecue sauce if you're putting bacon on a burger.

Look do you seriously believe that people being jackasses somehow makes your computer faster? Seriously?
Or are you just in 100% full-blast GamerGater Hateful Misogynist Mode right now? Like everybody else on this fucking forum, which is a complete lost cause?
Because your argument makes no fucking sense. BTW you should read that BBC interview where Torvalds specifically said he made this change because while he's an asshole, he's not a GamerGater Hateful Misogynistic asshole, and he's sick of being bucketed in with people like you.

Let me translate from gribnitspeak. He's saying that he wants anyone who is competently able to contribute to the kernel, to be allowed to contribute to the kernel. The fact that you think this is only about actual serious misogyny shows how little you understand the Internet.
