Don't worry, they'll tell you.
Frankly, it's annoying. If you're gluten free, that's fine with me. Save your breath, though. I don't need to hear about it at dinner. I don't want my dinner companion talking to me about it, and I don't want to overhear the four 30 year old women at the table behind me go on and on about "LIKE... Since I stopped eating gluten, my like, body, is like, sooooo much healthier!!"

Oh I get it. But again, so? So what if it's annoying? I don't expect you to lean over to another table and say "actually, a recent study has shown that you're wrong and a ####ing idiot."
It makes no difference whether or not gluten intolerance is real. All it does is give people ammunition to call others out on their bull####. But that doesn't get anybody anywhere. Like I said before, the annoying gluten free people would latch on to something else if not this. There should just be a crusade against annoying idiots for being annoying idiots rather than this. Especially since this gluten free fad has still actually been beneficial for people who have legitimate problems.
This new study isn't going to make the annoying people shut up. It'll probably just make them say "yeah, I knew all those other people were faking it. Not me though."
So we either deal with the idiots who will latch onto the next trend, or we keep fighting their dumbasses until gluten free becomes uncool and people with celiac go back to eating celery and corn starch.
