Wendy's flags the nine FDA major allergens (milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybean, sesame) on its US menu. Because food is handled and prepared in shared areas, cross-contact can happen and Wendy's cannot guarantee any item is allergen-free; many items can be ordered without ingredients such as cheese or condiments.
