Ex-Employee:

Where to begin, the fryer may say dedicated but the oil is filtered through the same machine as the regular oil, so it's has cross contamination. Some may be affected more than others, we always got sick after eating the fries.

The hamburger buns are toasted on the grill usually in the same side/area. The grill is only used for protiens with the buns being the only gluten exposed to it.

The GF tortillas for the wraps are steamed in the same unit as the regular ones. They put it on a rack, then into the machine, it gets put on the same cutting surface and then is cut with the same knife as the regular wraps.

The GF mac and cheese noodles are stored in a pan behind the regular noodles and it's common to find a few that have fallen into the other side.

The GF cookies aren't certified oats (which aren't all that gluten free to begin with).

Salads have the lowest chance of being contaminated as they aren't exposed to glutenous items and are gluten free (minus croutons, which are in their own bin at the end of the line away from the salad station.) But again the gloves/utensils are where the contamination happens.

The steak sauce and huckleberry bbq sauce are made with regular soy sauce (wheat). The garlic aioli is spread with the same spoon and comes in contact with the regular hamburger buns and isn't changed for gltluten free items.

Most surfaces are also contaminated to various degrees depending on where you are on the line. Gloves are worn but aren't consistently changed when handling gluten free items.

Wife's Celiac w/ wheat allergy and would consistently get sick and spend days camping in the bathroom from it. I have Ulcerative Colitis and would get crippling cramps and internal damage (TMI but it's messy and ulcer related but it took a while to recover from).
