Every holiday, I like to bring something special for our families. Typically, we spend it with my husband\u2019s family, but sometimes we\u2019ll change dates around and have holidays a week before when everyone is free.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Her SIL\u2019s ever-changing diet added a fair amount of complexity to holiday planning.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>My SIL suddenly decided to go gluten-free last Thanksgiving. A week before, she messaged the family group chat asking everyone to change their recipes to accommodate her.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know anything about gluten-free baking and had already had my recipe picked for a month and was excited to make it. I messaged her privately that I was uncomfortable accommodating her, as I wasn\u2019t sure how to safely prepare gluten-free food and didn\u2019t have enough time to change plans.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, I wouldn\u2019t mind, but I know gluten allergies and sensitivities can be very specific.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But she didn\u2019t agree with her SIL\u2019s passive-aggressive approach.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Instead of messaging me directly, she started sending TikToks to the family group chat showing how to prepare gluten-free food and how cross-contamination works.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the videos showed people saying stuff like \u201cThis is why people with gluten sensitivity won\u2019t eat your food,\u201d and showed a cabinet that had bread in it. Which I do understand, but again \u2014 I\u2019m absolutely not prepared to de-gluten my whole house.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Still, the baker tried her best to accommodate her SIL, but things still ended badly.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I responded that I would try my best to accommodate her and switched my recipe just to appease my husband\u2019s family. Thanksgiving rolled around, and I made an actually impressive gluten-free (mostly, I think) dish.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone loved it \u2014 except for my SIL. She made a scene saying that I didn\u2019t respect her enough, that my food was disgusting, and refused to even try it.<\/p>\n<p>I tried not to take it to heart, as she can be difficult sometimes, but I definitely left feeling embarrassed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So when this year came around, the baker decided she was done accommodating her ungrateful SIL.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This year, due to the family travel schedule, we had our Thanksgiving three days ago. SIL hadn\u2019t mentioned anything about doing gluten-free food this year, and quite frankly, I wasn\u2019t willing after the scene she made last time.<\/p>\n<p>I made a regular dish and brought it. To my surprise, she actually ate it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But things didn\u2019t end well and accusations started flying.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Also to my surprise, about an hour later she ended up in the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>She messaged the group chat claiming I had specifically told her it was safe for her to eat and that I intentionally poisoned her.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The baker could no longer keep her cool.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This is where I really think I might be TA. I messaged her back and told her she needs to get her life together. If she wants a special diet, she needs to prepare it herself and not rely on others.<\/p>\n<p>I said I never once said my dish was gluten-free, and if she remembered the ordeal from last year, my kitchen is not gluten-safe in the slightest.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, why would I go through all the trouble to make her special food when she didn\u2019t even eat it last time?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Now the entire family dynamic is tense.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Anyways, I\u2019m sick of the back and forth. His whole family is upset with me, and it\u2019s weighing heavily on him.<\/p>\n<p>AITA?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>What a nightmare.<\/p>\n<p>Redditors weigh in with their thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>This commenter isn\u2019t exactly buying the sister-in-law\u2019s sob story.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-670637\"
