I'm surprised that's the case. I used to scoff at gluten free, but that was at least over a decade ago when the options were half assed.

I know it's not quite the same, but when a restaurant offers gluten free they're also likely to offer keto or low carb options. Given how many people are prediabetic and don't even know it, they're missing out big time on the alternatives. In most cases, it really is just simple ingredient swaps or removals on otherwise very delicious food. I actually do choose gluten free anyway when I just want a break (is less bloat for me).

Hands down, some of the best food I've ever had was mediterranean inspired or at least featured more protein and less carbs. Once you see the light, it's downright disgusting how many places are serving you the same bland brick of carbs on a plate over and over.
