That would be absolutely wild if Subway could find a way to pull that off and not cross contaminate the sandwich fillings.

Not sure how that will work. Don't they lay the cut bread on a little counter with the toppings? Then reach gloved hands in the toppings? And the crumbs off the cut bread get pushed or dropped in the toppings?

Only way I can see this working out is if they have a separate station for gluten-free toppings and condiments, separate toaster and educate employees really, really well about the need to change gloves. Unfortunately none of those scenarios are highly likely, IMO. This will just be another place for people that are doign gluten-free as a trendy diet and not for those doing it for medical reasons. I wish someone would open up a sub shop chain with nothing but gluten free sandwiches. Maybe we will see it in a few years.

I wonder where they would even prepare these sandwiches? The few Subways I have been in have been small and there would be no place to isolate them from the wheat stuff.
