Um... this isn’t a great take. Everything said assumes that the gluten free food is going to taste bad or worse. Gluten free food can look, taste and be just as good as ‘normal food’ so there really doesn’t have to be any problem here.. This Morning I’d be happy to come on and show you how good gluten free food can be & some much needed awareness. I promise you won’t be disappointed 😇 Thanks Craig and Josie for trying to bring it back around later in the clip but unfortunately I think too much had been said. What do you think? Keep responses civil, we don’t want to appear as an angry mob… we want more gluten free on tv and in the media, not less. But most importantly spoken about in the right way! 💜

So... it’s happening 🤯 This Morning contacted me to ask whether I would come on the show and I said... YES 💍 Tomorrow morning I will have the chance to show that a gluten free Christmas dinner is both easy to do and delicious & that us gluten free folk ain’t difficult or a problem 🙃 What things would you like me to mention most? (if I get the chance... it’s live TV but all I can do is try my best 🧡) I’m really grateful for this opportunity on behalf of the entire coeliac and gluten free community. I really hope you will tune in and support me 😇 I’m quite nervous! Thank you to everyone who requested for me to be on the show - it means a lot!

I can't believe I managed to roast Craig in my very first sentence on This Morning 😂 sorry! 🎄 Thanks to This Morning for having me on so I could show everyone there's nothing wrong with gluten-free food! (and sneak in a few important things about following a gluten-free diet, Coeliac disease and Coeliac_UK) You can watch the full clip on their website here: All the GF recipes I made (yorkshire puds, gingerbread stuffing and bread sauce) are there in full too 👌🏻 Big thanks to everyone who watched, did you? - if you enjoyed it or want to see me on there again, please let them know! & huge thanks to Craig, Josie Gibson and the entire team behind the show, you are all fabulous 🧡 After the comments made the other day, I felt like there was a big weight on my shoulders to set the record straight... and I knew it would be very tricky to do that whilst making 3 different recipes in the space of 7 minutes!! But thanks to all your support, I think I did ok (or so I’ve been told - it’s all a bit of a whirlwind still) Hopefully everyone can now see that gluten-free food doesn't have to look or taste any different to 'normal' food, nor does everyone have to be eating their own separate meals at Christmas! As I said, being gluten-free is NOT a choice so please don't think of us as difficult! 🙅🏼♀️ Oh and of course preventing cross contamination is crucial for ALL who have coeliac disease!

The cost of gluten free 'does not seem fair'! Do you agree? This is what one of the presenters said on BBC Breakfast today. They did a piece on how expensive gluten free food is & the reality of having no choice but to buy it. It's great to see pieces like this more regularly 🧡

Yesterday I posted that gluten free pasta is now the SAME PRICE as standard pasta in Sainsbury's… 45p cheaper than it was! Well, we have an update and it’s GOOD NEWS 🥳 Tesco have now followed suit in reducing the price of their gluten free pasta to 75p - such great news 😍 What we need now is all the other supermarkets to hopefully do the same AND also consider other staple items such as gluten free bread, flour and cereal. Coeliac_UK’s campaigning to make gluten free food more affordable and accessible is going to really help this 🧡 What do you think? ⚠️ Don’t just read the good news & think ‘ohh wonderful’ - keep shouting (politely!), so many don’t realise how many of us have to follow a gluten free diet, how it’s not a choice. We need to show everyone how many of us there are & thus how important these price changes can be for a huge number 💪

Gluten free food is too expensive & for many it's NOT A CHOICE! 💸 @coeliacuk have put out a report on the cost of gluten free food + the reasons why it matters & are looking for as many people as possible to get behind the campaign. Please RT #GFCostPledge #CostOfLivingCrisis

The Cost of Gluten Free Food on TV 🍞 Fab piece of coverage on ITV News regional programmes last night featuring Charlotte Burke & Coeliac_UK 🧡 Not that we didn't already know.. but gluten free food is too expensive! Definitely take a watch. What do you think? 🤔

Great to see Becky Adlington & Coeliac_UK on BBC Breakfast & BBC News (UK) this morning talking about gluten free & coeliac disease. This is what we need! Raising awareness is the key to making change happen. Following a gluten free diet for so many is NOT A CHOICE & NOT A FAD!

Gluten free & Coeliac Disease on TV 🧡 Did you watch it? What did you think? It was amazing to hear from Frankie (who has coeliac disease), Nicola (Frankie’s mum) and also Professor David Sanders, a gastroenterologist and Chair of the Coeliac_UK Health Advisory Council. A fabulous combination of people, able to provide both real life, lived experience and the correct medical information and advice. Thank you This Morning for making sure this happened, it was so important and hopefully will make a difference in many different ways to many different people. In my mind it helped to: 🔸 Raise awareness of what coeliac disease is, what symptoms to look out for (there are more than you might think) and that you should NOT remove gluten from your diet until you have been tested for Coeliac Disease (I hear from thousands of people who have done this either because they thought it was best OR worse still, their doctor recommended them to - this is not correct). It’s so easy to shout, get angry and frustrated when things are misrepresented, misunderstood and spoken about in a dangerous and incorrect way HOWEVER, I find that whilst we are quick to jump on the negatives, we are less quick to show our appreciation when things are done right. Yes, maybe some people might think that it shouldn’t have be spoken about wrongly in the first place (you’re right!) but if it hadn’t of been, we wouldn’t of had this amazing opportunity to raise awareness on TV. So I’m here to say thank you This Morning 🙌 If you didn’t get to watch the piece it will be on catchup in full (it was at about 10:56am for about 9 minutes), if you want more information on coeliac disease then head over to the Coeliac_UK website - the self assessment form is there too & also if you think someone you know might benefit from watching then let them know. Hopefully having 2 gluten free segments on This Morning within a month is the start of more awareness, more improvements and positive changes for the Coeliac & gluten free community 🫶
