If you recall, Kat has Celiac disease, which is why she has a bunless burger... she is not on Atkins

I didn't even notice she was using lettuce until you mentioned it ;]

That would suck to not be able to eat bread, I love bread, just had two slices of Texas toast.

Heee, Mal's face in the last frame, awesome

...I love bread as much as the next person, but I've tried burgers-on-lettuce-instead-of-buns. It's actually quite tasty, and I prefer them that way.

Just my opinion though, so take it for what it's worth. ;)

Yeah Mal's face is priceless.

And isn't Atkins like so 5 years ago anyway? :P

I don't know why, but that was really really funny to me. xD Maybe because it happens to me sometimes.

The Bakery I work at actually makes Wheat Free Bread. It's very strange stuff.

If you want, I'll get you a bunch of recipes from a firend whose whole family's got gluten problems... so she went and made their entire diet gluten free and makes her own bread out of not-wheat matter.

I love Mal's expression in the last panel :oD Although I sympathise with Kat - I get that all the time. And non-gluteny things are annoying non-filling sometimes, unless you make an entire meal. Trying to ward off between-meal hunger pangs with buckwheat flapjacks is expensive :o)

I concur with the Mal expression in the last panel. Excellent.

yay Celiac reference!
I have Celiac, it's actually the whole reason I started reading this comic, someone had posted a link to the first reference Head Trip made on a Celiac form, and now I be hooked on HeadTrip.

Celiac does suck, much of the time. Still...it's getting a lot easier to find gluten free foods in stores, and more importantly, gluten free food that doesn't suck terribly. Kinnik Kinnik everything, Amy's Kitchen meals...and pizza, Pamela's Cookies, DeBowles Pasta...much better than the terrible blasphemies that used to pretend to be food, and all that was available. Remember Wasa crackers? Eeww...though if you melted cheese on them, they became...edible, if still far from appetizing.

Now we just need restaurants to get in on it, instead of having to make do with Atkins options, or creative selections at times...especially actually knowing whether something has gluten or wheat in it. I can't tell how many times I've found out the hard way that something had such in a supposedly corn wrapper or some such...after the server was sent back to check, in the first place. Or that your soup has wheat as a thickener...and the same. Some places are better about such, when I visited my parents in Chicago I found out gluten free options, and even restaurants are available...but here in Michigan...not so much.

Oh, the expression on Mal's face is utterly priceless!

I don't have Celiac, but I do know that there's at least one restaurant offering gluten-free options; PF Chang's, one of those "semi-upscale chains", has a gluten free menu.

Non wheat eating totally SUCKS. My fiance is allergic to wheat (similar to Celiacs, but not quite as deadly) so it makes eating hard. But those lettuce burgers are pretty good.

Definitely sloppier though.

Yeah, I usually eat them with a fork, if they aren't wrapped well that is.

The art was especially good on this one. I just wanted to mention that. Also, I love Kat's bizarre freak-outs; they're always funny.

I was wondering about that. Thought it might be a pesach thing. It's the right time of year for it.
