Gluten-free

The reason I knew she was ignorant was because she asked if there was flour in the potato pancakes. "Yes," I told her. I knew the answer to that one.

"Is it the cubed potatoes which have gluten?" She asked.

"Yes." I said. She went with the other, non-gluten potatoes.

So I went ahead and assumed she wanted gluten-free bread with that, because it comes with toast. Yes, but she wanted to read the ingredients off the bread packaging first.

I ran to my boss.

"She wants to know what the ingredients are in the gluten-free bread," I hastily explained to my boss.

My boss said she can't touch our food. I took a photo of the ingredients using my cell phone and showed it to her at the table.

After her inspection of the photo, she said, "Yes, I will take the gluten-free toast."
