Rejected petition Reduce costs of gluten-free products in Supermarkets!
I understand that ingredients used for gluten-free products means that they may not be able to be the same price as regular alternatives, however the prices can be so ridiculous sometimes.
Example: Warburtons Protein Wraps - £1.20
Warburtons Protein Wraps (Gluten-free) - £2.99
More details
A gluten-free diet isn't something that the majority of people choose to live by (some do) it's more a case of having to otherwise we experience uncomfortable symptoms or we become very ill. However, some people would rather make themselves suffer everyday than pay the prices simply because they cannot afford it.
More and more people are gaining an intolerance and I think it's only fair to make it affordable to live out of discomfort if you do have one.
