Gluten-Free People Don’t Know What Gluten Is (Video)

In last year’s This is The End, Seth Rogen’s character Seth Rogen describes gluten as a blanket term for things that are bad for you, from calories to fat. While this isn’t entirely accurate (it’s actually a composite wheat protein), the definition seems to work well enough for plenty of people as a solid reason to go gluten-free.

On Monday night’s show, Kimmel set out to find gluten-free people to see if they knew what it was they weren’t eating. “Gluten, in case you didn’t know, is a mixture of two proteins found in wheat,” Kimmel said, admitting he hadn’t known either. “But here in L.A. it’s comparable to Satanism.”

Kimmel found four people, none of whom were able to give an adequate definition of the compound. “It’s pretty sad, because I don’t know,” one man said. Others attempted definitions, but usually didn’t get much farther than “wheat” that’s in “bread.”

“Maybe gluten doesn’t exist,” Kimmel said.
