Review of Old Agness Store

I think this is great business, but as a Celiac the fact that gluten crackers are being used on charcuterie produced on the premises, it doesn’t feel truly dedicated gluten free. Given the health impacts to Celiacs and the hard work many do to stay healthy, I think that this business is not truly dedicated gluten free at this time, and Celiacs should be aware of this fact. Preparing the Charcuterie boards with wheat crackers in the building is a fact those with celiac should be aware of and decide if they want to accept the risk. A true gluten free restaurant does not allow gluten on the premises. They don’t even allow sandwiches with gluten to be consumed by their employees on the premises. However, many may not find this to be an issue. However, the Celiac community deserves full disclosure of possible contamination so they can make the choice themselves. I would be very happy to hear in the future that the policy has changed and wheat and gluten products are no longer beneficial no packages on the premises. Then this could be a true shining star for the gluten free community on the South Coast.
