The Anonymous Widower

A GLuten-Free-Free Town

So I didn’t search too hard, but a quick walk into Scunthorpe didn’t appear to be very promising, when it came to looking for something to eat.

Scunthorpe Town Centre

I think of all the places I’ve been to in the UK, I can’t think I’ve been anywhere that was so lacking in any place that looked like it might be able to sell me a gluten-free meal.  Usually, there is an Indian restaurant and they can very often be relied to produced something more than acceptable.  But the only such restaurant appeared to be closed at lunchtime. 

So I turned to that other standby and bought an egg and potato salad, a drink and a banana in M & S.  In fact this was the first M & S in a decent sized town that I’ve found, that didn’t stock gluten-free bread!

But I had prepared myself and I had some smoked salmon sandwiches in my case.

I would hate to live on a gluten-free diet in the town.
