    As a person who has to eat a Gluten-Free diet, Lidl have advertised a GLORIOUS selection of products in their weekly leaflet for next week - and at much cheaper prices than other supermarkets. I was delighted when I learned of this thinking how much I'd save money-wise. THEN I read the leaflet .... FOR ONE WEEK ONLY??? Do LIDL think we only have to eat Gluten-Free for one week of the year ....??

    Gluten free is for cissies. Embrace your inner coeliac, and the side of the jaxx.

    It's people with your attitude that voted for fianna fail and ruined the country for a generation.

    I have a problem with people like this.

    I like to eat non gluten food when I can, just a preference.

    I think it's aimed at this sort of occasional gluten free shopper, not those with a medical need.

    Maybe they want to establish if there is a sufficient market before stocking it as a regular product.

    I was happier shopping there when all I had to avoid was the horsemeat.

    I'm guessing constipated.

    Are you constipated OP?

    How long's it been since your last bowel movement?

    I reckon if the products sell enough they will be introduced to the regular range of products, it's way of testing the market.

    why is gluten free bread always so small? does gluten make bread grow or something?

    No need to read it again - he didn't put the cheese on Gluten Free bread? It's not rocket science ...?

    He didn't put it on any bread. Maybe you should leave rocket science to the rocket scientists.

    If you had made the effort, you might have got a nice Chrissie prezzy, like my OH did.

    do they not give some gluten free products on prescription to gluten intolerant folks in ireland like over here?

    removing gluten from mine makes a huge difference but its a part of autism in own circumstances as opposed to a full on intolerance;alcohol is the worst for it.

    one of the young lads at our place gets gluten free pasta and it is fcking disgusting,thought had been given horrible cheesy pasta but no it was this rank stuff,people mocking celiac in this thread need to try this sht first.
