This might be true for people in general, but people who have been diagnosed with Celiac disease are definitely allergic to wheat.

Not wheat, gluten

edit: for the downvotes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coeliac_disease

> where individuals develop intolerance to gluten

> Coeliac disease is caused by a reaction to gluten

> While the disease is caused by a permanent intolerance to gluten proteins,[10] it is distinct from wheat allergy, which is much more rare

I have celiac disease. When I eat foods that contain gluten or a similar protein, avenin, it triggers an immune reaction which causes inflammation and damage in my intestines. It's not an allergy, it's not a wheat allergy, it's not a glyphosate allergy. You may keep your uninformed opinion.
