What to know about garlic aioli
Garlic aioli is mayonnaise loaded with raw garlic, and that garlic makes it very high in fructans, a FODMAP that commonly causes bloating and gas. Unlike plain mayonnaise, which is low FODMAP, aioli carries a real garlic load, so a dollop can trigger IBS symptoms. It is also egg and oil based, so it is not egg free and not vegan.
Watch for
- Very high in fructans from the raw garlic, a FODMAP that drives bloating, gas and cramping
- Poor for SIBO because that raw garlic ferments quickly in the gut
- Egg based, so it is off limits if egg is one of your triggers and it is not vegan
