Red Lobster Introduces Gluten Free Menu

In response to a letter from our past president, Mary Wikle, Red Lobster restaurants are introducing a gluten-free menu.  Here is the letter:

Dear Mrs. Wikle,

Thank you once again for requesting that we develop a menu for people with food allergies. In response, we are introducing a new allergen menu that specifies whether each menu item contains any of the following ingredients:

• Peanuts
• Tree Nuts
• Shellfish
• Fish
• Soy
• Dairy
• Wheat / Gluten
• Eggs

As part of our ongoing commitment to transparency and choice in helping you meet your nutritional goals, we are also making available a downloadable and printable version of this menu at http://www.redlobster.com/health/allergy/ . While visiting our restaurants; you may obtain this menu from your server.

Since recipes sometimes change, we will update the allergen menu regularly. Please note the effective date printed on each menu, and visit your local Red Lobster or redlobster.com any time you want a current copy.

The allergen menu is now available in our restaurants in the U.S. only. We anticipate having an allergen menu ready for our Red Lobster restaurants in Canada in Spring 2011.

We hope you find this information useful. We appreciate having you as a valued guest at Red Lobster and invite you and your family to use this coupon the next time you dine with us. https://www.redlobster.com/promo/special_offer/

Sincerely,

Kim Lopdrup
President, Red Lobster
