Current Events > how come halal or kosher diet is not a fad like gluten free?

(+) Yeah! (+)

person legit can't eat wheat or they poop blood so then tons of people bandwagon and join the diet acting like not eating wheat is healthy and truly the way man was intended to eat

how come no one decided the same for pork and shellfish and started saying that even though we aren't religious we think this is how man is intended to eat and be healthy?

If you're a maniac about gluten free diets and you don't suffer from celiac disease you're a fucking moron and you are one of the reasons why people who actually suffer from the disease have to pay so much for the food they can actually eat.

actually wrong

as someone who has the disease and has pooped blood before, there is more options and thus competition now than ever

nearly 8 years ago there was no section with gluten free products or labels to distinguish what normal products had it

so if YOU don't have the disease, maybe stop being outraged for us, cause YOU aren't helping actually

You know that some people have actual, terrible allergies to Gluten, right? It's not really just a 'fad'

It's a very small percentage and doesn't excuse that almost every advertisement for "wow we're gluten free!" have no mention of Celiac's Disease whatsoever.

Halal or Kosher eaters are actually pretty healthy in comparison to average people.

It's actually ritual purification, it has nothing to do with health.

For example, for beef to be considered Kosher, a priestly butcher has to ritualistically cut the bull's throat with a blessed knife that hasn't touched anything deemed unclean, and which one can see their reflection in. The motion of cutting the throat must be done from left to right in one swipe without stopping. Then all of the blood from the animal must be allowed to drain into the ground on its own without touching anything other than the animal itself. A rabbi must be on the premise to watch all this being done.

If this isn't followed exactly, the Rabbi considers the meat unclean, and unfit for Jewish consumption. It's usually sold to the Gentiles.

Even the process of making a sandwich in a Jewish deli involves a similar blessed knife. It usually has Hebrew etched into it. If he accidentally cuts into a ham sandwich with it, the knife has to be discarded, and he has to get a new one blessed by a rabbi.

If a Jew consumes something not Kosher, even accidentally, they have to go through a lengthy process of ritualistically purifying themselves.


TLDR:If Kosher became a fad, the Jews would sell the Gentiles non-Kosher food so that there wouldn't be a shortage for practicing Jews. What Jewish organization would go through all the trouble just so a Gentile can look good in a bikini?

How am i wrong, there's competition now because before there were really few brands and the people were taking advantage of the "fad" by rising the prices, it's good that there's competition now because people aren't getting buttfucked with prices and people who actually suffer from celiac disease have more options.

I know people with the disease that aren't doing that well in life to be able to afford the high prices of gluten free good, that YOU aren't one of those doesn't mean EVERYONE else is fine with it ya goof.
