Chicago’s Gluten & Allergen Free Expo 2013

Where are all my gluten free friends? Living gluten free seems like it has become a popular American trend, but many are required to sustain this diet for a healthy wellbeing. If you think back five years ago, when you asked for a gluten menu, chances are you would get a look of confusion. As if you just asked the server a trivia questions of some sort.

But, I have something greater than a menu; the gluten free gods are now bringing us the USA’s largest – The Gluten Free & Allergen Free Expo!
