私はセリアック病です。小麦・大麦・ライ麦は少量でも食べられません。普通の醤油や味噌も使えません。これは大丈夫ですか？
I have coeliac disease. I can't eat wheat, barley or rye, even a little. That includes regular soy sauce and miso. Is this OK?
Say celiac, every time. Say it when you sit down, ask what's safe, and check again when the food comes. Places that don't know the word rarely have the processes.
