Jason’s Deli is a Cut Above for Quality and Dairy-Free Options

Updated January 2023! There are a lot of sandwich chains, but Jason’s Deli is a family-owned business that goes the extra mile. They offer a very diverse menu of sandwiches, wraps, salads, pastas, baked potatoes, and build your own options. And they keep things as natural as possible by shunning trans fats, MSG, high fructose corn syrup, dyes, artificial flavors, and artificial colors. The healthier focus also means Jason’s Deli has a wide range of dairy-free choices, which we’ve outlined below.

I appreciate having a place that I can easily specify no cheese and switch the bread. I don’t feel like I’m restricting others when I suggest this as a place to eat.
