USE CAUTION! I ate there last night. The girl who took my order was aware of Celiac Disease and assured me they change gloves and use caution. I explained I get violently ill and for how long. She told the first person at their backbar/counter of my Disease (I hate to call it an allergy). As I rounded the counter I immediately noticed how their back bar was full of crumbs and knew I would have to watch them to ensure the crumbs did not touch my food. She put the aluminum down and the bowl on top of it as usual. Then another worker came over, pulled the foil out from under the bowl, flipped it over and waited on my patties And then wrapped the foil over my bowl. I knew this wouldn’t work because now BOTH sides of foil had touched the crumb backbar/counter. I told the manager that I couldn’t eat it and why. He threw it out and made me a new one. The worker that moved the foil then rolled his eyes, shrugged and threw his hands in the air. He clearly has no idea how this disease and cross contamination will affect a Celiac. A person I was with told him that was unacceptable behavior & that I get very ill. Then he yelled at her. Five Guys is generally so good about their practices but this just proves we have to be our own advocates.
