Be careful not to eat too many carbohydrates. Just because it’s gluten free doesn’t mean it’s calorie free.

My poor bestie is having a hard time finding gluten free meals in our area plus he is on $194 EBT every month and as some of you know gluten free foods are usually more than regular food. He was saying that welfare should allow more money for those with food allergies to accommodate there food allotment every month.
