Didn't know ISIS gave a hoot about gluten free.

Gluten free pasta is the same kind of oxymoron as lactose free cow milk. Might look the same at first glance but absolutely fails at replicating the most important property: taste. And here we have scientists proving it‘s worse in other aspects as well.

I and two of my three kids have coeliac(0), so we may have to disagree on that!

Can confirm that various GF alternatives really don't come close to the originals. Without the gluten things seem to be too "biscuity"...

0) Third child positive for "predisposition to coeliac" on a genetic test, but no symptoms and an endoscopy was negative too. Let's see.

Of all the options for heavy water, deuterium oxide, 2H2O, D2O… the latter is my least favorite because every time my inclination is to try and think of what element D is on the periodic table.
