Is cocktail sauce low FODMAP?

Cocktail sauce is moderate FODMAP, safe in limited portions (2 tbsp (30g)).

Cocktail sauce is ketchup and horseradish, so a 2 tbsp serve is usually fine; both are gentle in small amounts. Many jars add high-fructose corn syrup, so check the label and pick one without onion or garlic.

FODMAP subgroups to watch

Cocktail sauce contains excess fructose that can drive SIBO symptoms.

Portion threshold

The tomato-and-corn-syrup base carries excess fructose as the serve grows. Single typical servings stay in the rated range; larger servings push past the threshold.
