Allergens:
The wrap contains gluten, sesame, and possible traces of rye, milk, and nuts. Nando’s allergen guide notes:
- Gluten: Soft tortilla wrap.
- Sesame: Possible ingredient traces.
- Rye, milk, nuts: Potential cross-contamination.
Some PERi-ometer spices contain shellac, per Nando’s. Customization, like swapping the wrap for a pitta, may reduce allergens. Cross-contamination risks exist, as meat and cheese are grilled in shared kitchens.
