Caesar dressing

High FODMAP (Avoid)1 tbsp (15g)

Is caesar dressing low FODMAP?

Caesar dressing is high FODMAP and best avoided during the elimination phase.

Most bottled Caesar dressings carry garlic and onion powder plus anchovy, so a normal pour stacks fructans. A few certified brands make a low-FODMAP Caesar; if you made your own with garlic-infused oil, log the homemade version instead of this one.

FODMAP subgroups to watch

Caesar dressing contains fructans that can drive SIBO symptoms.

SIBO note

Watch this one for Hydrogen sulfide SIBO (ISO). Caesar dressing contains sulfur compounds, and hydrogen sulfide (ISO) patterns can be more sensitive to these, especially in larger servings.
