It’s a delicious “ invasive species” that I and most folks digest just fine thanks. If you want a near version 1.1, try spelt. It’s very good too and makes a fine bread.

We turn out to not KNOW that 'most folks' is applicable to wheat, barley and rye.

The intolerance business runs the continuum from intermittent problems to 'Oh my GAWD almighty' ~ vast numbers of human beings simply don't eat any of the three (Preferring, instead to eat rice, corn, tapioca, yams and other sources of starch).

The greater part of the research over the centuries has focused on Europeans.

The Australians have narrowed it down to some very specific peptides. Might even be possible to breed the problem out of wheat ~ but I bet that'd ruin the crust on bread. A small sacrifice I say.
