Here we go.
I sure am amazed how many people like to fuss about what they eat.
Like the people who are obsessed about fructose, which is converted during digestion.
Many anxious and nervous people worry over every loose stool or every abdominal twinge and they many times have irritable bowel problems created by their irritable brains. But why not look for some dietary magic and talk to your friends about it and obsess about it and worry the medical care system, the grocery store, your personal trainer, and every restaurant you go into, so you can demand that attention you need and deserve? What could make your life more meaningful than to fuss about what you’re eating or considering eating?
Ever wonder if someone like me can pick out the ones that will send dishes back, ask for their dressing on the side, complain about everything? Well I can smell em. They have a special way of being, treating waitresses, drawing attention to to themselves so I wanna kick em in their prissy little butt.
People who are obsessed control freaks also have a way of looking for medical care too-nothing is more precious to them than being the center of the known universe and making their medical problem a really important and complex thing. The personality disorder in effect is a combo of histrionic, borderline, and a sociopathic. Not nice people, exhausting to be around and cater to.
Gluten obsession is just one thing that helps control freaks get the upper hand, so they can feel better about their pathetic but many times short term effective effort to control the people around them. If you got a gluten issue, guess what, it can come up 3 times a day–maybe even more.
People with real gluten intolerance don’t enjoy it, it requires they avoid things they may like to eat. There is another group that really need to have things that they shouldn’t eat–or can obsess about.
Celiac Disease is the gluten intolerance thing, but it is a limited thing and gluten intolerance is not widespread enough to produce this fad. Companies that pander to the fetishist bunch like the fixated–kind of a variant of the people who have to buy their organic food and their food provided at the high-priced boutique grocery story–all these obsessions and fussiness result in a market for high-priced food that certainly might result in the benefit of our old friend the placebo effect. One thing for sure, it puts more money in the pocket of the people with the right public relations/advertising schtick.
Why should I condemn food fetishes maybe it’s just the thing people need to have that special feeling about themselves and the things they care about–themselves.
