    Five Guys? Good about allergens? I opened the door and was faced with a horror show. Peanuts to the left of me, peanuts to the right. Peanuts to the center. I retired from the field.

      Yeah, idk… I went to their website and the fries are not flagged for peanut allergy yet it also says “cooked in 100% peanut oil” so that does not inspire confidence lmao

        They aren’t exaggerating. There are literally pallets of peanuts just out in the open at Five Guys. It’s one of their things.

        It’s probably 100% refined peanut oil, which removes the protein people are allergic to during the refinement process.

          Yep peanut oil in the US is safe for people allergic to peanuts.
