<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> This is from the nutritionist at Taco Bell. From: Ensley, Kathleen [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Friday, April 05, 2002 8:23 AM This correspondence is in response to your request for information about ingredients in Taco Bell menu items. You inquired as to which items are suitable for gluten-restricted diets. Because wheat is a part of so many of our recipes, many items served in Taco Bell restaurants are not suitable for gluten-restricted diets. However, there are a few items you can safely order: * Pintos and Cheese * Bean Tostada * Side Items/Toppings Include: Cheese Sauce Sour Cream Guacamole Seasoned Rice Hot or Mild Sauce Picante Sauce Jalapeno Peppers Red Sauce Fiesta Salsa Cheddar Cheese Produce Items Three Cheese Blend (Lettuce, Diced Onions, Green Onions, Tomatoes) We have recently begun frying our nacho chips in the stores. Our nacho chips DO NOT contain wheat, but the chips are fried in the same fryer in which wheat-containing items are prepared. Therefore, we have removed nacho chips as an acceptable item for gluten free diets.
