Taken for granted by many, but capable of bringing food experience rapture to others, writes Jan Raycroft

SO there we were, virtually dancing in the aisles of the Twyford Waitrose – me and the by chance coeliac disease suffering member of staff restocking the ‘Free From’ section with expensive bread that actually tastes like ‘the real thing’ and snacky sweet things (much of which have far too much fat and sugar).

What was causing our joy? The fact that I’d found yet another dining out place where those of us who must avoid gluten like the plague (or suffer our own version of it) can feel at home, and most of all ‘safe’, is always good cause for joy when shared on the not-gluten grapevine. But that wasn’t the reason we were a little over-excited, nor that for us, at least, my find was ‘just down the road’.
