Any One Else Having Good Luck With 5 Guys?

hello all,

after i saw that 5 guys says on their site that everything but the bun is gluten-free so i decided to give it a try again (had not eaten there since before i went gluten-free). first time i went in and ordered w/o a bun the manager came over and asked me if it was cause of a food allergy, i said ya and they made sure to keep it off of the counter where the burgers with buns are made (even though it is done on foil always), they changed gloves pretty well and took every precaution they could to keep gluten away in a mixed kitchen. second time i went in the guy at the register asked me right away and made sure the people working the line knew and it was great again, i noticed they even put down a paper towel on the area they worked that is away from the buns.

this may not be good enough for those that are extremely sensitive but im not the highest tolerance celiac and it seems that im not getting glutened (my stomach bothered me the next morning but i think it was something else since usually getting glutened for me sets my gi off in 2-3 hours tops).

so just wanted to see if anyone was having similar experiences and wanted to let those that havent tried it to see how their 5guys is if they have one near them.

I ate out at a 5 Guys in Chattanooga--burger sans bun plus fries and had no problem. LOVE their fries, and it's nice not to worry about breaded food items ccing the fries in the fryer. I still have to try one locally.

We've eaten there several time with problems. The counter person always asks if it's an allergy and then they change gloves.

Love those fries!

I've only eaten at 5 Guys once, two years ago. Had no problems. I'm still drooling just thinking about their food. Wish they were here in the Midwest.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?
    • Scott Adams
      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
