Wawa has everything! Gas, quick snacks, coffee, hot meals. If you’re from the area you probably share my affinity for Wawa. Best of all, for the gluten-free eater, you can go beyond the bag of chips for a quick snack. They offer hot foods like gluten-free chili, deli meats, and tasty drinks.
Below is what the response I received from a Wawa representative regarding gluten-free food in their stores or go to the Quick Gluten Free References page:

My Gluten Free Lifestyle 
Are your new specialty cappuccinos and lattes gluten free?
Hi Danielle,
Thanks for asking! If you click on the link below you’ll be able to read the ingredients for the new latte and cappuccino drinks: I also recommend that you talk to the staff in addition to reading up on the ingredients just to be certain that each Wawa location has the same procedures when they prepare your food/beverage. I hope this helps!

I used to work at Wawa and there’s absolutely no way that the deli selections are safe (due to cross-contamination). It’s good to know about the grab and go items, but I wouldn’t trust anything from behind the deli counter.
Thank you so much for your insight and experience. Cross contamination is always an issue with all gluten-free foods, and whenever considering foods that are not personally prepared I always recommend asking how it was processed and if cross contamination is an issue. If there are any doubts I pass on the option.
I just checked their site…looks like they have changed ingredients on at least one item…their chili now contains wheat. 😦 And, unfortunately, they don’t list allergens for all of their items…so one can only assume they contain gluten.
Thank you appreciate the feedback. So important to always check labels before you order anything, even if it was once safe.
Wawa Chili contains soy sauce, which contains wheat.
Thank you they must have changed their ingredient list which is why labels must be checked constantly
I see that the mashed potatoes are gluten free. Is the gravy also gluten free? I’m particularly curious about the gravy in the turkey bowl. Thanks!
Hi Jill. I would check with Wawa Corporate and also the local store to see how they handle the product and how it interacts with the rest of the kitchen. I have not followed up with their product offerings in quite some time and it would be best to ask them directly. I’m sorry I can’t offer an answer but I don’t want you to take any chances, especially when it comes to gravy. Aside from the gravy (and if it contains gluten) cross-contamination is always something to look into.
I will do that. Thanks your reply!
