The tool’s own caution: “While a particular ingredient may not contain one of these allergens, our products may be prepared on the same equipment and in the same kitchen area as those that do.” Gluten is the special case: “Taco Bell does not claim “gluten-free” for any ingredients or menu items.” A free mark for gluten here is the tool’s word about ingredients, never a claim by this site.
