Jersey Mike's in Oaks Rolling Out Gluten Free Sub

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- Jersey Mike’s Subs is introducing gluten free sub rolls to select restaurants throughout the country, including the Philadelphia area.

Currently, Wild Flour Bakery brand gluten free subs rolls are available as an option for customers in the Horsham, Oaks (named the Phoenixville location), West Chester, Glen Mills, and Philadelphia locations.

The proof and bake sub rolls, with a Tuscan Herb flavor, come from Wild Flour Bakery LLC of Boulder, Colorado, according to a press release.

Just like Jersey Mike’s original sub rolls, this gluten free version arrives as dough and is baked fresh in-store each day.

“Gluten free living appeals to a growing number of Americans,” said Jersey Mike’s President Hoyt Jones. “We hear from former sub lovers who are now gluten free that they miss their Jersey Mike’s subs as well as from those who have never eaten a sub sandwich. We’re happy we can now say: welcome to ‘the juice.'"

Wild Flour sells the industry's only purely yeast-raised, artisan, gluten-free pizza dough ball and sandwich roll portions that bake and taste just like wheat, according to Jersey Mike's.

The restaurant added that they have dedicated pans for baking gluten free rolls.

Gluten-free eating has become increasingly popular over the last several years. Individuals with Celiac disease, which comprise about one to two percent of the world population, can have serious reactions to foods with gluten.
