YOUR MISSION COMPLETED: (NOT) JUST FOR KIDS Gastroposters don’t want to grow up! At least not if it means being too old to enjoy the favourite foods of their youth.

Bread is the bread of life! Think about it: without bread there would be no toast, no sandwiches, no buns — and what kind of a world would that be? Your mission is to eat something that shows bread at its best. From a slice of your favourite gluten-free option with jam to a great meal prepared using a fresh baguette from the bakery down the street, go with the grain and share it with your fellow Gastroposters.
