She could have also taken up a collection from the coworkers, get a couple bucks from each and bought her a gf cake with that.

Like it's a whole different ball of wax if you take something to work versus feeding it to family because there's liability issues either way, but it can create a big problem with your job, too, if you give somebody an allergic reaction because of accidental cross contamination.

i mean person aint required to bake for whoever they want or don’t want but it’s real easy now. you can just go buy a box of name brand gf cake mix from the store. cross contamination isn’t going to be a huge problem if you just wash things and take a little caution. i’ve baked for my celiac friend a bunch and i mill my own flours. it’s understandable they might not want to tho, you have to be careful about touching poo poo. not hard just need to be detail oriented

yeah and if the coworker gets sick from anything else at all in the past week, fingers will be pointed at the baker coworker. Doesn't matter what. Best case, she could have said cross contamination was a fear so she could not bake, but would find something else that would be safe. Of course the coworker probably would have screamed the place down regardless. No more cakes at that workplace, I bet.

Mx. posted:AITA for kicking out a guest for getting upset with my daughter? look. I expected to see an empty porch. Instead, I saw a porch with a nine-year-old on it, drinking tea. totally reasonable and normal response to start screaming and pulling your hair out. like I was getting my oil changed the other day and they offered me a cup of coffee. what I expected to see was a container with liquid creamer. what I saw was a cylindrical container full of white powdery poo poo. I screamed "you must be kidding me!!", Kicked over the table with the coffee maker on it and started screaming at the top of my lungs. The whole 9 yards. Long story short I'm getting a new mechanic.

I've noticed that american kids are held back developmentally by a good 5-10 years compared to most places simply through their hosed up car culture and paranoia. Like a US suburban 16 year old is at the level of personal independence a 10 year old in most places, while actual 10 year olds are treated as fully helpless infants. I read insane poo poo in these reddit posts like 13 year olds who need babysitters. Is this a universal US thing or only in the worst sort of suburbs? In slightly older US media I'm always seeing fairly little kids walking to elementary school or hanging out with their friends independently.

I think it really got worse once smartphones and 24/7 monitoring became ubiquitous. I grew up in the mid/late 90s in the suburbs and it was very normal for kids to walk home by themselves from elementary and middle schools or just be out with their friends for a few hours. It was literally impossible to know exactly where your child was at all times then, so what was the point in freaking out about it? Now it’s super easy to be a control freak.

If you can’t monitor your kids at all times then your choices are basically telling them to come home when the streetlights come on, or never ever letting them leave home, and I’d imagine even most helicopter parents wouldn’t be able to handle their kid at home at all times I grew up in the suburbs and basically as soon as I knew how to ride a bike (age ~6) I was free to do whatever so long as I was either home by dark, or called home to get permission not to be

It varies but definitely got worse probably starting in the 90s and in the suburbs, especially when suburbs gave up the vestige of being walkable or having anywhere worth walking to. People were trained to be paranoid angry shut-ins and see everyone else as a threat.

I think some people also have kid-age-blindess. They can't tell the difference between a three and nine year old, have no memory of when they were kids and how the adults around them dealt with their various and growing levels of maturity and responsibility, and just knee-jerk scream "That's an abandoned child with irresponsible parents!" whenever they see a child doing stuff out in the world. The fact that modern American life keeps children hidden away from adults most of the time probably contributes to this. Would do a lot of us childless adults or older busybodies some good to see some gangs of little ragamuffins going about their daily business and realize that, while some of the stuff they can get up to is dangerous and needs some adult intervention, most of it is neutral and okay. Also you were worlds of different when you were a five year old vs. a nine year old! Don't you remember that poo poo?

I think true crime and similar media has been enforcing it, but I suspect that those genres have grown a lot in popularity because the fear and distrust is endemic in the north american subconcious.

Breetai posted:Y'all don't know poo poo about baking If somebody has an actual gluten allergy, it isn't good enough to make a gluten-free recipe in the kitchen where you normally bake gluten-rich foods. There was a gluten-free bakery in my last town that had its employees shower and change before they entered the bakery, to make sure that no outside gluten was brought in. The employees were also not allowed to bake anything at home that contained gluten. Because, for people with the severest allergies, grains of flour carried on clothing can be enough to bring on a reaction. OP's mixer probably has grains of flour in the controls, in the place where the bowl attaches to the mixer, in any joins in the surface of the mixer. That stuff can easily contaminate something you're baking. And OP calls this out as the reason they aren't comfortable baking something and claiming it's gluten-free.
