Five Guys is really good about allergens, including gluten. They have a special allergen free zone in the kitchen that is apparently a huge pain in the ass to prepare for use each time, but they make sure it's not got any of what you're avoiding. If you ask for something to be left out of your order they ask: "Allergy or preference?"

Five Guys? Good about allergens? I opened the door and was faced with a horror show. Peanuts to the left of me, peanuts to the right. Peanuts to the center. I retired from the field.

Yeah, idk... I went to their website and the fries are not flagged for peanut allergy yet it also says "cooked in 100% peanut oil" so that does not inspire confidence lmao

They aren't exaggerating. There are literally pallets of peanuts just out in the open at Five Guys. It's one of their things.

[-] mitchb@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

It's probably 100% refined peanut oil, which removes the protein people are allergic to during the refinement process.

[-] mrpibb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Interesting. I had no idea.

[-] bedlam@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yep peanut oil in the US is safe for people allergic to peanuts.

[-] mrpibb@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That's good to know, thanks. I've never been to a Five Guys and I've heard mixed reviews. Some love it/some hate it. I hear they're expensive? I will try them for safe GF.

Five guys is absolutely delicious..but they have peanuts in shells for free to snack on in the dining room so beware if you're allergic.
