In-N-Out Burger

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• The chain does not operate a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists by default, particularly around shared grills, utensils, and toppings.
• A core mitigation pattern is to have a gluten allergy note on the order, require glove changes, and use separate prep areas/trays for allergy orders. Several patrons report that staff actively carries this out, with foods bagged separately and paths clearly marked for allergy orders.
• Some historical reviews describe lapses when allergy processes weren’t followed or during high-traffic times. This underscores the importance of clear communication at the point of sale and watching for proper handling signals from staff (e.g., receiving a separate bag or tray, staff announcing allergy handling).
