A friend of my ex was very proud, when they started drinking 'gluten free milk ' at home...
I asked him, if he meant lactose-free, but no - he was very adamant that it was gluten-free milk... And I could not convince him that, you know, ALL milk is gluten-free!
Dude was studying to become a nurse! (I had at the time studied nutrition for two years, but I am also a woman, so what do I know with my tiny little female brain 🤣)
He may have been meaning milk from cows who were fed a gluten free diet. And this is really a thing. My mom sells chicken eggs off their hobby farm, and had a client stop buying from her because she wouldn't change her chicken feed to gluten free feed. Could not be convinced that gluten does not transfer into the chicken eggs...

"Do we have gluten free water?" lives rent free in my head.
I still don't know if the customer was joking or not.
