What to know about caesar dressing
Caesar dressing is a good example of how many triggers can hide in one condiment. It is high-FODMAP because of the garlic (high in fructans), high in free glutamate and dairy protein from the Parmesan, and it usually carries anchovy plus a splash of Worcestershire, so it can bother people sensitive to fructans, dairy, glutamate or histamine all at once. It is also moderate in lactose and gluten, and definitely not vegan or vegetarian.
Watch for
- High in fructans from garlic, the FODMAP that makes Caesar dressing a common bloating trigger even in small amounts
- High in dairy protein and free glutamate from the Parmesan, which can affect people reactive to casein or to umami-rich, glutamate-heavy foods
- Contains anchovy and often Worcestershire sauce, so there is a histamine and glutamate angle on top of the dairy and garlic
- Moderate in lactose and gluten (from cheese and, in many versions, croutons or Worcestershire), so it is not a safe pick on a strict dairy-free or gluten-free plan
