Hi Jack,
It is easier for people to accept my situation because I have celiac disease
and get violent reactions from even trace amounts of gluten. It is hard to
do, but when fed a "normal" meal I just eat the meat and leave the rest.
When asked about it I just say that I can't handle the other stuff. I
sometimes have to go to a restaurant and have a meal there, but that may not
be an option since you living where you are for financial reasons. 

Good luck!
