Sorry to hear about your wife. I know how hard working around limited diets can be. Prayers up for you and yours.

And you are correct, gluten free will never take over traditional wheat. If for no other reason than some troublemakers will keep the old stuff around, and plant a small plot. Like I do. ;)

Thanks for your prayers!

Oats are traditionally on the avoid list for those with celiac, but the main reason is because most oats have come in contact with wheat during harvest/handling.

A few years ago, gluten free oats hit the market. Not genetically modified, just segregated from the start. They cost about 5x as much as traditional oats, but it gives her a chance to enjoy oatmeal like the rest of us.

I’m sure a gluten free wheat would be similar.
