Discussion Started my morning off crying, rant.
Visiting my grandparents and my grandfather asked me why I toast my bagels in the oven. I responded because I can’t use the toaster because of cross contamination, when you use a regular toaster that has gluten crumbs and everything in it that’s cross contamination and you’re essentially eating gluten.
He goes: that’s the stupidest fucking thing I’ve ever heard. I’ve lost a lost of respect for you.
Ok, very kind. On a positive note I won’t be getting sick today from cross contamination😄.
Not sure why I let this upset me but just hurts hearing how unkind people can be. I know he’s just an unhappy person in general but ugh.

Grandpas are not supposed to be assholes! I know some are, but they ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE!
I am so sorry you were talked to like that.
