Gluten is best known as the glue that holds a lot of foods together, as in the protein found in wheat, and a lot of people have an intolerance to it. Because this is becoming more common, once in a while I'll see a "gluten-free" on the menu at some restaurants.

Having to stick to a gluten-free diet is certainly tough. More people are being diagnosed with celiac disease and will become terribly ill if they ingest any amount of gluten.
