I got gluten poisoning from Thai custard last night. This is a real, actual conversation I had with the woman who owns the Thai restaurant, prior to eating the custard:
Me: Can you tell me what's in the custard?
Thai woman in the know: Sugar. Eggs. Milk.
Me: Is there any flour in it?
Thai woman in the know: What do you mean?
Me: Is there any wheat in it?
Thai woman in the know: Of course not!
Me: Great!
What she neglected to mention, and I neglected to ask about, is the presence of semolina in the ingredients. Semolina is the enemy, folks. It's a wheat by-product.
I guess that's the last time I eat Thai custard.
