<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Just when I think that we are making great progress in informing the public about celiac and gluten intolerance I was extremely upset by an article in the Friday's Wall Street Journal 5-11-2001 written by Elizabeth Bernstein under the FOOD section.(page W1) I was excited when I saw the headline "Let Them Eat (Gluten-Free )Cake. The writer wrote a sarcastic article about the inconvenience of having to serve people with food allergies. She treats all such people as being extremely demanding and a a pain to hosts and chefs. While she admits that there are a small percent who have allergies she scoffs at all who need to be careful about what they eat. She uses the words Gluten -Free in the headline but she does not seem to know about celiac disease. We should all write to the author and and inform her of her absolute lack of any kind of information and that she must not have heard of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Please contact her and her editor and publisher stating that she has done what in effect would get her fired if she made any such statements about the blind or mobility impaired. How awkward it would be for her to have a guest who used a wheelchair. Irma De Bruyn
