Allergens:

The pitta contains dairy, gluten, and possible traces of rye, soy, and nuts. Nando’s allergen guide notes:

  • Dairy: Cheddar cheese, mayo.
  • Gluten: Toasted pitta.
  • Rye, soy, nuts: Potential cross-contamination.

Customization, like swapping pitta for a wrap, may reduce gluten exposure. Cross-contamination risks exist, as bread is handled in kitchens.
