Listen "20 - Gluten makes me sick as a dog (Eng/Canto/Mando)"
Episode Synopsis
Learn a dialogue in Cantonese and Mandarin:
A: Let’s go out to eat.
B: No way--you forget I have celiac disease? It's a pain eating out.
A: What's the big deal? Just tell the kitchen you can't eat gluten.
B: Even if I say I can't eat gluten, who knows what the kitchen cooks up that may make me sick as a dog later on.
Bonus Chinese idiom: burning zithers and cooking cranes (antibiotics, much?)
