Food intolerances can be tough, especially when the family doesn’t get it.
In this story, our reader with a highly sensitive stomach tries to keep the peace at her in-laws’ dinner by eating a small portion of food she usually avoids.

Bring your own food.
The next time you’re invited, bring your dishes.
You could even offer to bring enough to share so they can try your food as well.
Let them know in advance that it’s because of your stomach issues, not because you dislike their cooking.
