What if you did everything right? 

You checked the food. 
You asked about cross-contact. 
You made sure everything was gluten-free. 

And you still got sick. 

What if the problem wasn’t the food at all? 

What if it was the straw in your drink...or even the plate your food was sitting on? 

I’ve actually gotten mildly sick from wheat-based straws before, so when I recently saw information about compostable plates made from wheat, I had to dig into it. 

And yes...this is apparently one more weird place gluten can hide. 

If you’re already thinking, “Great. Now I have to check my plates too?” 

Don’t panic. 

This episode is really about knowing what to look for—not being afraid of every disposable plate you see.
