What is a Vegan diet?
A vegan diet excludes all animal-derived foods, including meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, and honey. It focuses on plant-based sources such as fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Many people choose veganism for ethical, environmental, or health reasons. When well-planned, it provides sufficient protein, fiber, and antioxidants, though supplementation or fortified foods may be needed for nutrients like vitamin B12, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids. Vegan diets are associated with lower risks of heart disease and improved digestion but require mindfulness to ensure balanced and complete nutrition.

Not low FODMAP in the slightest
Not only is it not gluten free, but it also has onion and garlic…

This has gluten (malt vinegar)
Has gluten
First ingredient is Malt Vinegar (barley)
Not sure if this is correct
Pretty sure this has gluten
Malt Vinegar
I am under the impression as per my dietician that malt vinegar is in fact NOT gluten free. Therefore, this would be unsafe for celiacs. If I’m wrong, I’ll happily remove post.
