    The only thing that's evil is yourself. And by yourself I mean a person in general, and their choices and portion sizes of what they eat. You're your own enemy when it comes to food.

    Really?
    I'd like to think my future body will thank my present self's consideration to reducing my exposure to advanced glycation end-products, high blood sugar, insulin resistance, and bad fats. I feel like my own best friend when it comes to food. I feed the body good stuff, it thanks me by making me not feel awful. Symbiosis.

    My only complaint is that they don't GMO wheat to solve more issues. MOAR GMO!!!!!

    Maybe they could GMO it to remove gluten?

    Or we could GMO some bacteria to take in pill form and eat the gluten right from our bellies. That way bread will still have a delicious chewy texture. :)

    I feel like you might be a troll....

    No, it's true that gluten makes all the difference in terms of the texture of bread. It's the primary reason to knead the dough.

    I read several major reports by big research organizations and I am thuroughly convinced that consuming wheat is unhealthy in every way. So I ask you, is wheat unhealthy or just plain evil? Thoughts?

    I don't eat grains.
    But you won't make any friends not eating grains here. Grains are the crack cocaine of the general MFP forum user. To each their own, but I'm free from that addiction.

    ^^^ Listen to this guy. He sounds like he knows what he's talking about. I'm free of that addiction too, and it is AWESOME how AWESOME I feel. And no, I don't have Celiac, but IMO, it's true that MANY more people are intolerant of grains than we know. You go through life thinking you feel GOOD, until the day when you feel GREAT and realize "good" was just "okay." Eliminating grains did that for me.

    I really just wish people would decide what is right for them and stop trying to convince the universe. You are wasting your time and ours.

    I have suffered from IBS and GERD for nearly 10 years and since gutting out gluten I have had far fewer problems.

    It took me several years to figure out my triggers but anyone who suffers from the above problems I would definitely recommend trying to go Gluten free.

    I have literally never had so much energy in my adult life. I always had severe lethargy in the mornings but now I get up and go to the gym, no problem!

    I am a gluten free convert, I have since found out I have quite a strong intolerance so I am not avoiding it to be fashionable.

    Give it a go!
