The baked potatoes aren't always safe. Some 's locations don't cook them in foil jackets, so anything that's on a server's glove will be transferred. If they *are* cooked in foil jackets, they must be un-cut, as the knife used to cut is often the same knife used to cut sandwiches in half on request. ygg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I suppose he may be the " expert fryer " at that location... I'll call him " King of the Fryer. " However, does King Fryer have any knowledge about baked potatoes or about Salads? Or does he have to confer with Queen Spud? Just trying to be silly here... I got a kick out of what you said. I think there is almost at least one GF item in every place on this earth.... (Okay, in Pizza Hut it may be only one single portion packet of parmesan cheese... but it is SOMETHING).

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 There was a rumor recently that the Frosties had malt in them but the company has since debunked that. Here is the list of ingredients. No malt. It's on their GF list. Frosty™: Milk, Sugar, Cream, Nonfat Dry Milk, Corn Syrup, Whey, Cocoa, Dextrose, Guar Gum, Cellulose Gum, Mono and Diglycerides, Carrageenan, Disodium Phosphate, Artificial and Natural Flavors. CONTAINS: MILK. It IS possible that some 's don't have a dedicated fryer and that's why they aren't on their GF list. Most do in fact have a dedicated fryer, but you MUST ask. I always, always ask wherever I go. One can always ask for workers to change gloves. Don't you ask them to do that at Mc's? richard > > > > > I'm not sure he understands celiac, but I am quite > sure he said > they > > do not use a dedicated fryer for french fried > potatoes.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I have found that when I just order a burger, no bun, that's exactly what they do...same tongs, same gloves, etc...just no bun. However, when I order a burger, no bun, and say that my son has severe wheat allergies and can't have the bun they change EVERYTHING and make a point to tell me they changed everything.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Nah, in Pizza Hut I think even the single packs of parmesan are suspect.
