Although efforts are made to avoid cross-contact of allergens, Firehouse Subs does not guarantee that cross-contact with allergens will not occur. Before placing your order, please inform your server if you or anyone in your party has a food allergy.
Firehouse Subs does not consider soybean oil as an allergen. Studies have shown that most individuals allergic to soy can safely consume refined soybean oil, since it is 100% oil. Protein is the allergenic material in soy products that typically triggers allergic reactions and refined oil does not contain measurable amounts of protein.
This position is supported by several organizations including the:
--U.S. Food & Drug Administration
--Food Allergy & Resource Education Foundation (formerly Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network),
--American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology
--Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
