What to know about sweet and sour sauce
Sweet and sour sauce is the classic takeout glaze of pineapple, sugar and vinegar, often with a little onion, and that combination makes it high FODMAP on two fronts. Fructans are graded D and there is moderate excess fructose from the pineapple and added sugar, so the sauce can trigger bloating and loose stools even when the meat and rice it coats are fine. It also scores as pro-inflammatory thanks to all that sugar.
Watch for
- High in fructans (grade D), so onion in the recipe is a hidden FODMAP driver behind the sweetness
- Moderate excess fructose from the pineapple and sugar, a trigger if you malabsorb fructose
- Very sugar heavy, which is why it grades pro-inflammatory and poorly for DASH and Mediterranean eating
