Jersey Mike's introduces gluten-free sub rolls

According to a story posted by Nation's Restaurant News, Jersey Mike's Subs will be offering a gluten-free bun at its stores nationwide beginning next month.

This is great news. Jersey Mike's has at least 10 stores in the Jacksonville area that I counted on its website.

Currently, the only sub chain in the area with gluten-free buns is Larry's Giant Subs. Larry's is a local chain and I eat there often, but it's always nice to have other options.

According to the story, Jersey Mike's worked with the Gluten Intolerance Group to train its staff to deal with cross contamination issues, which is also good news.

The story says there will be a $1.50 surcharge for regular gluten-free buns and $3 for giant subs.
