Summary of Gluten Free Menu Options at KFC
Pro tips and a quick summary of everything gluten free at KFC
- When you order at the restaurant, drive through, or even online, tell them you have an allergy or Celiac Disease so they take precautions with your drinks and food.
- KFC has very limited options. Outside of sides and dipping sauces, there aren’t many things to eat here.
- KFC has no reviews on the Find Me Gluten Free app. That is most likely due to the limited options available to gluten free consumers.
