When you cut bread, the crumbs go EVERYwhere. Heating sandwiches up will be a bad move because it will be in shared ovens. The sandwiches get slid along a gluten-laden counter... even if only one person makes the GF ones, there is no way that there won't be cross contamination.  Several of their meats and such contain gluten and/or MSG (which can create a gluten-like reaction). 

Much better off just to make your own sandwich at home with foods you know are safe and take a cooler with you. 

I will definitely NOT be trying out Subway's GF endeavors.<br/><br/>

It was on a paper wrapper the entire time, even going in and out of the oven.  It was great!

There was an item list at the order station showing what sandwich items you could and could not eat.  The whole thing was great.

The guy pulled my cheese and meat from the middle of the stack so there were no crumbs on them.  Try it!<br/><br/>

She has eaten at Subway several times and they have always gone out of there way to make her sandwiches in a completely different spot or have had the counter wiped and then the bun was put on double paper so no contact was made. they also used unopened meet and veggies and have cleaned off the condiment containers before using them. I have been very impressed the all of the subway restaurants here in South West Washington.<br/><br/>

At least in Subway stores, you can actually WATCH them make your sandwich..that's a great plus! I miss Subway more than anything since having to go gluten free 6 months ago.

This may be an adequate solution for the mildly gluten-intolerant, but as a celiac the risk is still far too great for me.<br/><br/>

I feel good about watching my sandwich being prepared in front of me. For those who are worried, I have severe allergies to gluten but I am willing to give Subway a chance to launch this amazing trial. Be positive and only good things will follow.

The bread was great and the employee did very well to follow procedures to eliminate cross-contamination.  He used a new knife, a clean paper wrapper (the sandwich never touched the counter), and the meat and cheese were selected from the middle of the stacks to ensure that no crumbs that may be on the top of the stacks got on my sandwich.  Overall, the sandwich was great.  The only downside is the small size of the bun.  They could be bigger.  If you can, try it!<br/><br/>

The gluten free sandwiches reminded me of the deli rounds they used to sell. They didn't look that appetizing, but as my taxi was waiting on me outside I knew I had made the trip, I had to try the sandwich. As awful as it looked, once I sunk my teeth into it I realized it was actually good. Not even good, really good!! Subway must have taken time taste testing first as even the taxi driver told me he loves the gluten free brownies even though he's not gluten free. It was so good I brought some home and shared them with my kids, 2 of which also have Celiac. Even a few hours old (from the plane travel) my kids loved them!! Way to go Subway. Can't wait for this to go nation wide...

Oh yeah, and they took extreme care in handling the sandwiches. Used a special tray, plastic new knives, she washed her hands and changed gloves before touching my sandwich packages. The bread is pre made and each individually wrapped. I felt very safe and never had any side affects or contamination.<br/><br/>

I have an allergy to wheat, not celiac.  But gluten free is good for me and she offered to make me a sandwich.
I went back for more.
They got the recipe for this bun right.  I'm not sure what goes into it.  It is a little more yellow than most breads.  But it is light, fluffy and soft.  None of the gritty texture that I am used to getting in wheat/gluten free baked products.
I would really like to see this product up in Canada.
Yeah, the brownie was pretty good too!<br/><br/>

During their conversation, the employee threw a piece of cheese from a wheat bread sandwich back into the cheese bin contaminating the entire bin.  If my mother in law did not see the employee put the cheese back into the bin, there would have been no way to know about the contamination and we may have gotten sick. I bet none of the other employees knew about the contamination either and assumed the cheese was safe.  

Subway CANNOT guarantee that each franchise will completely eliminate cross contamination.  Why try so hard to prevent contamination of the bread from the factory to the store, if it's just going to be contaminated in the store using communal ingredients?  Grabbing cheese from the middle of the stack?  You still have to touch the contaminated outer layers before you touch the 'clean' inner slices.<br/><br/>
