Eating at a Meeting

🎉🍽️ Join me LIVE on "Eating at a Meeting" as we wrap up Celiac Disease Awareness Month with a powerful episode titled "The Critical Need for Clarity in Feeding Guests with Celiac Disease." I’m thrilled to welcome Erica Dermer from Celiac and the Beast for this insightful discussion! 🎉🌾

👩‍🍳 Dive deep with Erica, a prominent voice in the gluten-free community, as she shares her journey navigating the complexities of celiac disease. Her blend of humor and expertise highlights the ongoing challenges of dietary restrictions at events.

🚫🌾 We'll explore the psycho-social impacts and the often overlooked dangers of cross-contamination and lack of options. Erica's experiences bring light to these issues, like her recent conference dilemmas where she was faced with inadequate meal options. After seeing her plight posted online, I immediately reached out to a friend with connections at the convention center to ensure that Erica received suitable meals beyond the typical hard-boiled egg or slice of cantaloupe.

🎤 Erica's advocacy goes beyond her personal needs. She humorously captures the frustration many feel when she exclaims, "But daddy, I WANT A CROISSANT 🥐REAL BAD," underscoring the demand for more appetizing and varied gluten-free options at conferences and conventions.

👥 Known for her honest product reviews and pushing for transparency in the gluten-free market, Erica's insights are crucial for anyone involved in food service or event planning.
