Low FODMAP Grape Crisp (2024)

FAQs

What crisps can you eat on a low FODMAP diet? ›

Low fodmap crisps

Ready salted crisps are pretty much the main option for low fodmappers, but there are some that are tastier than others. Good choices are Lightly Salted Kettle Chips and Tyrells' Lightly Sea Salted. My absolute favourite however are Eat Real's Veggie and Kale Straws.

How many grapes are low FODMAP? According to Monash University's reanalysis of all grapes, a low FODMAP serving size is approximately 6 medium-sized grapes.

You do not need to restart the low FODMAP phase just because you had a cheat day or some high FODMAP food. You only need to stay in the strict low FODMAP phase until you have good symptom control and then you can start re-introducing high FODMAP foods.

Typically chips can be high in oligosaccharides. However, these Original Whole Grain SunChips or Fody Kettle Chips have been certified low FODMAP by Monash University and are a great swap! For best results, stick to a single serving size in one sitting. Now we need something to pair your chips with!

Low FODMAP foods to enjoy instead include:

Fruit: Bananas, blueberries, cantaloupe, grapefruit, honeydew, kiwi, lemon, lime, oranges, and strawberries. Vegetables: Bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, bok choy, carrots, chives, cucumbers, eggplant, ginger, lettuce, olives, parsnips, potatoes, spring onions, and turnips.

Fruits that are high in fructose can exacerbate IBS symptoms. You may want to substitute apples, pears, watermelon and dried fruit with fruits lower in fructose, such as bananas, grapes, kiwi, citrus, cantaloupe and berries.

Turns out watermelon contains high levels of oligosaccharides (fructans), fructose, and polyols, which means it is definitely a fruit to avoid while on the low FODMAP diet. Never fear though there are still lots of low FODMAP fruit you can enjoy this summer.

What serving size of blueberries can be classed as low FODMAP? A serving size of 28g (or 20 berries) is low in FODMAPs and should be more tolerable for the vast majority of those with IBS. Larger servings over 60g should be avoided as they will contain high amounts of Oligos-fructans.

Why do I feel worse on low FODMAP diet? ›

You may also be eating more starches and sugars from hyper-processed gluten free, low FODMAP packaged foods than usual, which may overwhelm the absorption capacity of a sensitive, hyper-active gut. If you suspect this, try eating more fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds and see how you feel.

The most common digestive disorder affected by an intolerance to FODMAPs is IBS or irritable bowel syndrome, apart from Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and other inflammatory bowel disorders (IBD).

If you skip these foods for too long, you may starve helpful bacteria colonies and cultivate unhealthy bacteria. Over time, if you follow only strict low FODMAP eating, you might notice yourself getting more tired, having more headaches, constipation, muscular weakness, or getting sick more easily.

A person with IBS may try to eliminate certain high FODMAP foods from their diet and choose safer foods instead. This approach can lead to weight gain if their chosen foods are high in carbohydrates and fats. A low FODMAP diet does exclude a range of nutritious foods.

The low-FODMAP diet temporarily restricts these carbohydrates in order to relieve uncomfortable symptoms and give your digestive system a rest. Removing irritants gives your gut lining a chance to repair itself and can help restore a healthy balance of gut flora.

 Diarrhoea can be caused by a high intake of fatty foods, reduce the amount of foods high in fat such as chips, fast foods, burgers, sausages, crisps and cakes. Try low fat versions, avoiding diet foods sweetened with sorbitol or mannitol.  You could also try probiotic foods (see page 5).

Monash University has certified seven of our U.S. cereals as low FODMAP – Kellogg's Rice Krispies, Kellogg's Frosted Krispies, Kellogg's Cocoa Krispies, Kellogg's Strawberry Krispies, Kellogg's Corn Flakes, Kellogg's Crispix and Kellogg's Frosted Flakes.

This product is likely low FODMAP.

In conclusion, Rice Krispie Treats can be enjoyed by individuals following a low FODMAP diet with some careful consideration. While the Rice Krispies cereal itself is low FODMAP, the marshmallows used in the treats can potentially contain FODMAPs, depending on the brand and ingredients used.
