Help with project: Then and Now!

I'm working on a project, looking at the differences in Celiac Disease?,
Food Stuffs?
Diagnosis or lack of it ?,
the funny to the serious and
everything in between.
.
What was it like being a celiac way back in the dark annals of time?,
how did people cope?,
what foods were available?.
.
Anything at all,
funny t-shirt sayings?,
Media cartoons of the day?,
photos of gluten-free products?

from way back when
broadband was something to keep the hair off your face.
.
A hard drive was Texas to New Jersey non-stop
.
Here are some ideas, of the sort of light hearted things I have in mind.
.
Bread in a can
.
Pain in the Butt
.
Against the Grain
.
Wheat - V - Gluten Free
.
.
Thanks in advance for any help,
anecdotes,
photos,
links to items.
.
This I hope will be a light hearted look at the differences.
.
Best Regards,
David

It will be used as a tongue-in-cheek link between the past and present and also as a introduction to a Celiac facebook account.
.
Some of the things I've got so far:
.
Anecdote:
.
A Celiac standing in line at the cafeteria and the guy in front says to the Celiac the pasta looks good,
knowing she had to explain when she got to the counter, she said with a certain amount of Gusto,
"I'm a Celiac"
.
There was silence for a moment,
then the guy in front, said "hey! that's cool",
"I'm a Sagittarian".
.
A thought to ponder on:
.
If Aliens were Celiac,
would we still have
'Crop Circles'
.
Comment from a Doctor:
.
You couldn't possibly be a Celiac because,
.
.
You don't look like a Celiac
.
(what are Celiac's supposed to look like??).
.
Best Regards,
David
