Why Nothing At IHOP Is Truly Gluten-Free - Tasting Table
Briefly

IHOP offers a gluten-friendly menu aimed at individuals avoiding gluten, allowing them to enjoy breakfast items like pancakes made with rice flour. However, it's crucial for diners, especially those with celiac disease, to understand that gluten-friendly does not mean gluten-free. The potential for cross-contamination in shared kitchen environments means that IHOP cannot guarantee that its gluten-friendly items meet the FDA's standards for gluten-free food, making them unsuitable for those with severe gluten intolerance.
IHOP's gluten-friendly menu items, while made without gluten-containing ingredients, cannot guarantee safety from gluten cross-contamination, posing risks for individuals with celiac disease.
The gluten-friendly pancakes are made with rice flour and are marketed as equally delectable to traditional pancakes, yet carry the risk of gluten presence.
