   Sammanfattning : This thesis conducts a cultural analysis of the social implications of food allergies and intolerances and analyzes the interaction of individual experience and social structures by asking what it means when one chooses not to follow the normative food culture, such as with vegetarian and vegan diets, or when one physically cannot, such as in the case of food allergies and intolerances, specifically Celiac. By focusing on lifestyle and dietary eaters, that is, consumers adhering to ʻalternativeʼ diets, such as veganism or vegetarianism, and individuals diagnosed with (or affected by) food allergies and intolerance, this research analyzes how (non)participation in the mainstream eating community is both a challenge and source of how people removed from the eating community understand themselves via social interaction.
