Tesco gluten free bread is £2 (I just looked), Warbies is £1.35. Not a lot extra if you eat a couple of loaves a week. A lot better than what the NHS pay from an earlier post.
Some people will have allergies which are less severe than this.......all I can tell you is my nephew has a very serious allergy and just touching the cards dealt by this boy almost proved fatal to him. He now carries an adrenaline pen for emergency use.

And I take your point about the Tesco Gluten free bread, but if someone told you tomorrow that you were going to have to pay £2 for a loaf of bread would you be happy?(especially as you can see others paying almost a third less for their bread)........and as I have pointed out it isn't just bread. No pies, pastry, biscuits, pizza, pasta, ready made meals(oh you can have the chips but not the fish...unless the frier will do it batterless for you), no bought sandwich, no sausages.
