Fody, a plant-based brand that specializes in the creation of FODMAP-friendly foods, newly expanded its range of products with digestion-friendly ketchup condiments. The new and improved classic ketchup from the brand is joined by an unsweetened version that's also friendly to the gut. Both of these full-flavor ketchup products from the brand boast a base of tomato puree but avoid certain ingredients that cause digestive discomfort in some people.
The demand for FODMAP-friendly condiments reflects a growing awareness and concern for digestive health. FODMAPs, (Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols) are a group of carbohydrates that can be difficult to digest for some people, and FODMAP-friendly condiments offer an alternative to sauces, spreads and dressings that include triggering ingredients like garlic, onions and even natural sweeteners such as honey.
