Chelsea’s Gluten-Free Wedding Cake
Is Chelsea Clinton a coeliac? I doubt it, as she sounds like a faddy foodist or lifestyle-coeliac, who has gone gluten-free for effect! I’m sure if she was really a coeliac, she would have told the media. But she is having a gluten-free wedding cake!
It was funny that the bit about this pointless wedding on Radio 5, was just before Luke Harvey did his piece about the racing at Goodwood today. He talked about Hayley Turner , who had a ride on Barshiba in the Nassau Stakes, a Group One race at the highest level.
She actually is a coeliac and admits it in interviews and articles for the papers.
We need more open coeliacs like her and less like Chelsea Clinton.

Apparently she’s ‘wheat intolerant’. But why anyone would actively choose to live without gluten is beyond me. Anyway, how much of this wedding cake is she going to be eating herself???

Maybe she has a coeliac in the family and wants them to share in the cake?

INterestingly, there is comment on American sites such as celiac.com, saying it is a good thing for coeliac awareness. My experience of North America has found that there is a lot that needs to get the awareness to the levels in say the UK, the Netherlands and Italy. On my travels, I found that it was easier to stay glten-free in Egypt than Canada. Even crisps in Canada weren’t gluten-free and if it hadn’t been for an Indian restaurant, which knew all its ingredients, I’d have starved.
North America has a long way to come!
