Exactly! I am very careful about what I use and consume. So when I am invited to parties or BBQs I simply bring what I need so I can enjoy the social event without whining or being a burden. It is my choice not to eat wheat or conventional meat/dairy. I don't expect anyone to bend over backwards just because I don't want to eat their food.
In return, I ask only that they respect my choices.
"If your kid is so allergic to peanut butter that my kid could eat a sandwich, touch a doorknob, your kid touches the doorknob an hour later, and then fucking goes into anaphylaxis... He isn't going to make it. Probably better off for you not to get too attached."
