Choosing prepared meals for celiac disease takes more than finding a gluten-free category. Review the exact food, the production setting, the evidence behind any testing or certification claim, other allergens and the current ordering details before you decide.
Short answer: A gluten-free claim, the production setting and the evidence for the exact meal answer different questions. Review all three, along with other allergens and current ordering details, before deciding.

FDA defines the voluntary gluten-free claim and requires foods carrying it to meet the applicable ingredient criteria and the less-than-20-ppm standard for unavoidable gluten.
What to check: Look for a clear, current gluten-free statement tied to the food you are considering.
A dedicated facility and a shared facility describe different production models, but neither phrase replaces review of ingredients, suppliers, service and the exact item.
What to check: Ask whether gluten-containing food is produced in the building or on shared equipment.
Facility language, finished-food testing and third-party certification are different forms of information. Do not infer testing or certification from the word dedicated.
What to check: Ask which records exist for the current meal and what the business is actually claiming.

A dedicated gluten-free facility is not an allergen-free facility. Check each meal's label for dairy, soy, egg, nuts, and other allergens.

The exact item still determines its ingredients, posted allergen information, serving details and other facts relevant to your decision. Facility language does not replace item-level review.
No. Gluten-free status does not establish whether a meal contains another allergen. SmashMeals handles other common allergens, so check the exact meal’s current label and posted information before ordering.
