Enjoying a delicious Sonic burger, wrap, or any other item should be a joy, but it can be a challenge for those with food allergies. It is where Sonic Allergen Menu comes to help!
It enlists all the Sonic menu items and their possible allergens to help people with special dietary needs make informed decisions. Keep reading the article to learn about it in detail!
What exactly is the Sonic Allergen Menu?
Sonic has introduced a helpful Allergens menu to inform its customers of the presence of potential allergens in their items. This menu is particularly for people with allergies to avoid unwanted encounters with allergens.
From bread and cheese to condiments and Sonic drinks, it covers all the items Sonic Drive-In offers its customers. It states that the following allergens could be present in these items.
- MSG
- Milk
- Egg
- Soy
- Tree nut
- Peanut
- Fish
- Shellfish
- Wheat
- Gluten sesame
It is essential to know that cross-contact can happen between products at Sonic. A product listed as allergen-free on the Sonic Allergen Menu might still get allergens from others. So, use the menu as a guide, but be careful. It is not a medical resource.
What’s more, the allergens listed may not always match the current ones, as Sonic changes its product source now and then.
Completely Allergen-Free Items
Plain Slush and the simple Water are the only two 100% allergen-free items on the menu. For the rest of the items, you need to check the below guide and carefully examine it before ordering.

Conclusion
Sonic’s Allergen Menu is a complete guide for people with allergies looking for safe food options. It tells you what to expect in each Sonic food item.
However, it is important to note that the menu should not be solely relied upon. Due to the possibility of cross-contact between products, items marked as allergen-free might still contain trace allergens.
Question about the slush: what is in it? My husband is allergic to tapioca and it isn’t one of the top allergens. Does it have tapioca? Thank you!
Unfortunately, the specific ingredients for the slushes are not explicitly listed there.
However, it’s essential to note that tapioca is not one of the top allergens commonly disclosed. If your husband has a tapioca allergy, I recommend reaching out directly to your local Sonic Drive-In to confirm if tapioca is present in their slushes.
Additionally, keep in mind that certain fresh bread products at Sonic usually have different ingredients due to variations from local bakeries.
