Which of the following foods present a problem for a client diagnosed with Celiac Disease?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Celiac disease, or celiac sprue, is a malabsorption disorder affecting the small intestine in which there is a problem with the ingestion of gluten, a protein normally found in grain products such as wheat, rye, oats, or barley. The other choices reflect substances that do not contain gluten and should not pose problems for a client with this disorder.
