  • For the most part, you are right, and I’ll acknowledge that how I worded that it sounded more complain-y than I really meant to. If anything I was trying to say that I thought it seems silly that things like that exist, and not that I have a big problem with it.

    That said, I don’t buy those products, but they still work their way into my life. If you have a vegan in your circle of friends or go out with one you’ll eventually find yourself at a vegan pizza place, or being offered vegan “bacon” with breakfast.











  • My wife had to do the low fodmap thing for a while, but I’m usually the one who does the cooking. She is also vegetarian which limited things even more. The best thing I learned was you could get decent pizza dough by combining gluten free flour and adding back in vital wheat gluten.

    As you probably already know, regular flour isn’t low fodmap, but gluten free flour is. As long as you don’t have an issue with gluten, you can buy and vital wheat gluten separately and mix it in and end up with something that more closely resembles regular dough.

    Unfortunately I don’t remember what ratio I used. I also never tried extending it to other bread-like foods but it might be worth a try. I hope the general idea is enough for you to start some experiments.

    Good luck!

    Don’t be “that guy”.

    Depending on the situation, whatever “that guy” is will be different, but generally I try not to be “that guy”. Very rarely “that guy” is a good guy, and then the whole philosophy breaks down, but most of the time that’s not the case, and I am happy trying not to be “that guy”.
