Have you ever been excited or anxious to fly, but then realized you still had to worry about what you’d be able to eat while waiting to board, or worse still what would happen if the flight was delayed and you're stuck beyond the security line with nothing to eat? My guest this week, Lisa, has taken it upon herself to write to Customer Service at the Vancouver Airport to request more gluten free options. We chat about her motivation, how the airport responded to her and a great example of how one airport is stepping up for gluten free food. Lisa originally posted her letter to the airport on her facebook page and has since re-posted it. You can find her on facebook @GFKetogirl.
