How easy was it to find food in Ireland?:
Since Ireland has a large population of Gluten-intolerant people, it is much easier to find restaurants, bakeries and pubs that will accommodate for this. On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the easiest, Kara said the ease of finding great-quality gluten-free food was a 10!
