Well... OK. You mention the expensive costs dropping with popularity, then when I point out a plate of fried eggs and bacon for breakfast at the diner has always been pretty cheap and nothing new, and they don't "need" GF pancakes or GF toast to serve naturally GF food, you turn it around and make it an availability argument instead...
As for ready to eat meals and such we've done "ok" with gourmet (aka non-noodle) soups and innumerable granola bars. Also sometimes you just have to try something else. Can't buy GF granola bars at this particular store today? Guess you're having (certain) trail mixes.
GF microwave meals sounds interesting. I'm guessing aside from specialty GF products, something rice based would be the best hope?

The availability issue was part of my original post, as well (viz., my points "b" and "c"). You assumed I was talking about junk food, and I had to elaborate my position in response. That's a clarification, not a topical shift.
For what it's worth, I totally concede your point about produce and meat. To the extent that you believe that such things invalidate my point altogether, well, that's where I needed to add clarity.
