Also, Dairy is included in a vegetarian diet, and veggie including fish is a pescetarian

Surely that fits fine into "Some other selective diet"

Perhaps, but that doesn't let athletes announce to the world that they are gluten free.

They should be thankful not to be given the opportunity to humiliate themselves!

I dunno, this gives them the opportunity to start a whole thread about how they're gluten free...

Oh dear, I fear you may be right....

There's no stopping it now. People that wish they had celiac disease also wish you knew about it. 3, 2, 1...

i think the poll needs to redone. better options are:
- vegan
- vegetarian (fish and dairy)
- gluten free
- paleo
- low carb
- high carb
- free for all.

Then we'll also need:

• High fat, low protein, vegan
• High fat, low carb, vegan
• High fat, low protein, vegetarian
• High fat, low carb, vegetarian
• High fat, low protein, pescatarian
• High fat, low carb, pescatarian
• High fat, low protein, vegan, gluten free
• High fat, low carb, vegan, gluten free
• High fat, low protein, vegetarian, gluten free
• High fat, low carb, vegetarian, gluten free
• High fat, low protein, pescatarian, gluten free
• High fat, low carb, pescatarian, gluten free
• High fat, low carb, hates animals and glutenites

I won't eat anything yellow but I'm also colorblind. So I wouldn't say my diet is 'selective'. If I'm alone and eating foods I'm unfamiliar with, my diet is more hopeful than anything.

This survey is indeed quite incomplete.

I am GF going on 9 years now. Not not by choice. Not celiac either.

Clindamycin antibiotic side effects. Google it. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. There is a cure: http://www.openbiome.org/

But no one will prescribe this except for a c.Diff infection resistant to antibiotics (oh the irony...) As if that is the only gut bacteria that can cause problems. It's just the one most known to science.

What about:
I will jump on every food fab that comes up..........

Right. I forgot about "Fruitarian, still have teeth" and "Fruitarian with dentures".

I'm genuinely trying to work out if you're being serious. I think you're not, but on the internet you can never quite be sure.

how is he going to select pink ... ;-)

Very good!

"pescetarian"

the poll originally had that word. then i repented of it because i didn't want to have to explain what that was.

Pretty much the same deal for me. Horrible gastro-infection about 8 years ago and never recovered the ability to digest gluten beyond trace amounts, I don't do a good job with dairy or cruciferous veg. either. Ive improved gradually with probiotics but Im not willing to go through the pain of trying to reintroduce. Its not so bad, I feel like the vast majority of glutenous foods are just empty carbs anyways so this keeps me out of trouble.

When you are trapped on an island and need to eat one of your fellow strandees, definitely eat the gluten-free one first. The meat is more tender, and as a bonus you won't have to listen to them talk about it any more
