How To Eat Taco Bell When You’re Avoiding Gluten

*Adds Power Menu Bowl to cart*

If you’re trying to avoid gluten*, cutting it out of your diet may seem like a daunting task. And when you’re on-the-go, it can make the process even more challenging. But don’t worry - we’ve got your back. When it comes to food sensitivities or allergies, we want to make sure you’ve got options.

But can we rewind for a second? What exactly is gluten? Gluten is a common name for the protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Unfortunately, this protein affects people in different ways, and not everyone can enjoy these foods without experiencing some side effects. There is a broad spectrum of gluten intolerance, including celiac disease, intolerances, and sensitivities, and people may be limiting gluten for different reasons. Luckily, there are ways to avoid or limit gluten, so you don’t have to completely give up the food you love to eat (like Taco Bell, obviously).

Here’s our 5 favorite Taco Bell items when you’re trying to avoid gluten:

*Taco Bell® does not claim “gluten-free” for any of its food. Some Taco Bell® items are made without gluten-containing ingredients but are prepared in common kitchen areas, including common fryer oil, risking gluten exposure. Taco Bell® does not recommend products for customers with celiac disease. Customers with gluten sensitivities should exercise judgment when ordering.
