There are several grains {that do not|that don't}contain gluten, including corn, wild rice, quinoa, oats, millet and amaranth. {The most common|The most typical} type of gluten encountered {in the|within the} American diet {comesfrom|originates from} wheat flour. Much of the gluten {can be removed|can be taken off} from wheat flourif desired, {but not|although not} all of it, no matter what {you do|you need to do}. This is especiallyimportant, {for example|for instance}, because today, many Americans are increasingly developing glutenallergies, including {a very|an extremely} serious digestive disorder called {celiac disease|coeliac disease}.Gluten-free diets are also increasingly touted {for their|for his or her} benefit to children with autism, {forexample|for instance}.

Because it's {also very|extremely} elastic, it helps keep itsshape {so that|to ensure that} bread can actually be formed into loaf shapes and isn't {simply a|just a} glueylump. Wheat {products are|goods are} used in many different forms {and are|and therefore are} very versatile,{and the|and also the} gluten in flour is what {helps make|tends to make} it so. {For example|For instance},flour can be kneaded together with other ingredients {to make|to create} piecrusts, other types of dough{such as|for example} pasta dough, {and so on|and so forth}. This would be very difficult {if not|otherwise}impossible to do were it not {for the|for that} binding effects of gluten. Gluten {is also|can also be} very absorbent, {which is why|and that's why} it's useful in bread ({forexample|for instance}, to sop up gravy {with a|having a} piece of bread {on a|on the} plate). And becausegluten {is so|is really} absorbent, it can be used {as a|like a} special "meat substitute" for those onvegetarian diets.
