Boycott In-N-Out.
Boycott In-N-Out.
The California-based burger chain plans to ban face masks on employees in five of the seven states in which it operates, citing the importance of staff "smiles" for customers.

I like In-N-Out's food okay. What I really like is their simple menu. It's the only fast food my family eats because they can do gluten free safely. The owners are definitely conservative and christian (and weirdly so imo) but those freaks know how to run a well-functioning restaurant. The mask ban is obviously stupid but I won't boycott over it. Sucks for the workers, but also In-N-Out pays better and appears to treat their staff much better than your typical fast food joint. I'd hate to see those jobs shifted over to something like another McDonald's, for example.
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.
It's probably 100% refined peanut oil, which removes the protein people are allergic to during the refinement process.
Interesting. I had no idea.
Yep peanut oil in the US is safe for people allergic to peanuts.
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.
