Using the FDA’s rule of thumb that 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low and 20% or more is high, one serving is high in saturated fat (50%), sodium (43%), protein (32%) and fat (31%) and is low in dietary fiber. Add it up with other items in the Dairy Queen nutrition calculator.

DQ says allergens are present in every location and cross-contact can easily happen, so it cannot guarantee that any item is allergen free or that the data is accurate for a prepared item; tell the restaurant about allergies before ordering and ask to see ingredient labels. Fish and shellfish are cooked in the same fryers and on the same equipment as other items such as fries. The frying oil is a vegetable blend that contains soybean oil. Gluten is in many products; for gluten-sensitive guests DQ points to its sealed, factory-made novelties (Dilly Bars, Buster Bars, Fudge Bars, Vanilla Orange Bars, Starkiss Bars), which are made without wheat, rye, oats or barley, but not to the store-made versions. Allergen data comes from ingredient and product manufacturers. Items in parentheses in DQ's table "may contain" the allergen.
