Vegetarian Cantina Bowl - Large portion- Vegetarian - Convenient for a quick, cheap meal- Many locations- pretty dang healthy in comparison to most fast food.- menu easy to read to pull up / read on an iphone Had heard great things about the cantina menu in general, even before I took the plunge and admitted to myself that I have a gluten intolerance. I don't love fast food ... but after being in the car for a long period I was starving. Imagine my delight that after spotting a Taco Bell, I was able to very easily pull up a well organized, easy to read list on my phone , sorted by allergen type, and the ability to input the rate of severity! To top it off, it came in a vegetarian option ! score! I didn't have to be picky and ask for no chicken / or just pick it off myself. Since I only ate about half, and saved the rest for later I estimated it to be about 10 g of fat, and under 300 cals! Am very excited about this discovery. :D

Taco Bell does not have a gluten free menu, but they do have an allergen guide on their website. Please speak to the person taking your order regarding potential cross-contact risks.
I let the person taking my order of a gluten allergy and they made sure to let the person preparing the food to change gloves and minimize cross contamination. She assured me that the corn taco shells for the crunchy tacos are packaged separately and are kept separately in the heating box.
Also, when the workers that prepped the food handed it to me, they made sure to tell me that they were careful and that they placed the crunchy tacos in a separate bag from the rest of the order.

So far, I’ve had the regular crunchy tacos, the taco supremes, the pintos n cheese with tortilla chips and I haven’t had any reactions but then I play it safe and ask the staff to switch out their gloves.

They have very few gluten free options like hard tacos and rice and beens. But the food is all crossed contaminated and they don’t know how to keep everything separate. When made aware of the food allergy they changed their gloves and sanitize the food station but the ingredients are all contaminated because I still got sick. I know if I didn’t walk in and went through drive through they wouldn’t have changed their gloves or wipe down the station.

The Doritos locos tacos are delicious, and they are good about changing gloves. Workers do not know what wheat is, or what flour is made of. They said none of the menu items contained wheat. Which is far from accurate. Cross contamination is a high possibility. Hands and face swelled within an hour of eating and gut issues later in the day.
