I had an appointment today at Moffitt Cancer Center — I’ve been battling leukemia for the last three years, which has been an emotional roller coaster. Sometimes, it’s the small things that help lift your spirits. After my appointment, I wanted to treat myself and try one of Panera’s new sandwiches.
Unfortunately, I’m allergic to the bread that the sandwich normally comes on, so I asked the cashier if I could switch the bread. She kindly said yes, and I placed my order. While waiting by the pickup area, I witnessed the manager/director of operations Jamie instructing the employee making my sandwich to disregard my allergy and use the original bread anyway. I saw my sandwich being made incorrectly and placed in my bag.
When I calmly confronted the manager about knowingly ignoring a customer’s allergy, she showed no concern and made no effort to address the situation. The owner Kevin then stepped in and raised his voice at us. I explained that I had just come from the cancer center and was simply hoping to enjoy a small comfort meal. His response was that I had “other things to worry about” and that they “made the sandwich as requested,” before telling us to take our food and leave — with no apology, no understanding, and no empathy.
I left feeling disheartened and disrespected. Food allergies are not optional, and kindness costs nothing. I hope Panera reviews this incident seriously and provides better training on compassion and food safety.

Panera has obviously changed their bagels. My favorite cinnamon crunch bagel is just cinnamon, no crunch, no sweetness anymore. So disappointing!!!! I also had fugi apple chicken salad to go and they didn't even fill up the dressing cup. So I ran out of dressing. What is going on with them. I loved Panera Bread before. Just ashame.
