What has been your response/strategy to deal with the backlash by family members when having to turn down their meals 2 times a week? I’m talking about meals that are by default cooked in aluminium foil, contain factory farmed chicken, salmon, pork, PUFA oils, often gluten and dairy (big skin issues trigger for me). My refusal becomes the central topic of discussion every time and is a great source of stress and accusations of being an attention seeker/spoiled/anorexic. These family gatherings for dinner are my main contact with some of my family but I am considering staring to turn down invitations which would pretty much be equivalent to cutting ties with them.
